For those out-of-touch wackos (like myself) who are so misguided we see the simple enjoyment of the coin rather than its profit-generating ability...
I collect what appeals to me. For me, putting together a series of something is too confining. I do this because I enjoy it. If I did the...
This might be a minority opinion, but I don't think having a lot of variety is necessarily a bad thing. Some of the coins are very attractive...
I know what you mean. You would think they would stamp it on the coin somewhere.
Come on, man. Let's keep this a factually correct board. A koala is not a bear; it's a koala. It is not even closely related to a bear.

I think it's okay because in this instance it means "Pretty Crappy Guarantee (by) Seller".
I'm keeping my fingers crossed in the hopes the Mint will do the exact same thing with the Eagle some day also.
It's a special edition. The 2012 regular Kookaburra has already been released.
I'm a sucker for the reverse proof Eagle also, so that's why I want a set. As fretboard suggested earlier, including a half-dollar size Eagle...
