    Is it just me, or does the coin case for this Perth Mint Gold Sovereign look like a little wooden toilet seat? It has shape, proportion and little hinges. They even put something yellow in the “bowl”. Did nobody notice this in a product development meeting? Unfortunately, now I can’t unsee it.

    Is there a little note attached?: "Remove Coin Before Flushing"

    I wonder if it swirls to the left? The COA should be printed on a little roll of toilet paper. Spool it out to read the details.

    There was a dealer who always came to our local shows who'd display his "specials" in the center of one of those transparent toilet seats with embedded coins. I think his business cards actually said "the best seat in the house". He's gone now, sadly, but I'm sure he would've gotten a chuckle out of this.

    It's just truth in advertising. They're letting you know that you're flushing your money.

    It's not just you. It totally looks like that.

    Then there were the MCCS slabs.

    You've got the bowl and the tank, here...

    Yes it looks like a toilet bowl but at least it is the luxury version. :D
