As I was browsing @ddddd's Coca Cola coin thread, I was Googling and found this: https://www.moderncoinmart.com/2017...lver-plated-specimen-050-coin-gem-bu-ogp.html Interesting. Anyone have a guess as to how long the batteries would last? Non-replaceable, i'm sure...
Also saw this, but there's no way I'm paying $200 for it... https://www.moderncoinmart.com/2016...m-proof-original-mint-packaging-sku42254.html
The lights are probably LED so even a very small battery should last a long time. Is there a switch or is it always flashing?
I knew I read it somewhere and had to search through the page to find it... "What makes these coins unique is that they actually have lights inside them. When you press the coin, parts of the hero design light up. . . . The button is located on the obverse..."
Yeah but the Scary Movie series wasnt scary. The scary thing is the younger generation knows more superheros than they do the names of people on money currently.
Different subject but not a new idea. Many years ago one of those countries had a series of coins with cars on them where the headlights lit up. Palau one dollar 2008.
I was referring to the series as a completely bonkers, over-the-top parody of the original subjects. Which is what these coins are, an over-the-top parody of numismatics.
