Not one for colorized coins but.....

I actually like this one. Two of my favourite things, wolves and the northern lights in the same place.

Agreed on the subject line, I'm not a colored coin fan either, but that looks cool. I'd buy it if I could get close to spot.

 

Agreed, these are going around $80-90. Too much but hopefully the price will come down

 

I hear you. Some of these can be pretty, but I always find myself circling around to what I consider to be a "coin". Is it anything in the world someone wants to call a coin? Am I willing go down the collectible plates and beanie babies path? Or are coins something definable and different?

Just in my opinion, a coin is a piece of metal struck by a government to be used in commerce. This definition leaves out guitar shaped coins, colored coins, (which would wear off in circulation), and similar. Strike a proof version of a circulating coin and I am fine with it, but in my view only I only stick with simple chunks of metal stamped out and intended for commerce. Any coloration, weird shapes, Mickey Mouse designs, etc simply are disallowed.

However, I never judge others collecting choices. If you like it, good for you man and I hope you get to own one. I really mean it.

 

What the heck has that wolf been eating??????? Rainbow trout?

 

they could have done better on the wolf....

 

I'm squarely in this camp with you.

And this one too, of course.
