<p>[QUOTE=&quot;mmissinglink, post: 2020121, member: 47293&quot;]At 2 1/2 years into buying coins (mostly modern) and reading about all sorts of coins from ancients to the most currently released by the major mints of the world in my CoinWorld&#039;s magazine subscription and in forums like CoinTalk where I learn a lot from other members, I still consider myself a newbie.</p><p><br /></p><p>I keep my eyes open all the time for new, exciting precious metals coins that I may want to add to my small modern coin collection. I was excited for the release earlier this year of the domed Baseball coin.</p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;m interested in your opinion on the following very unusual collector coin.</p><p><br /></p><p>Recently I came across one that I really like a lot and I think some of you will too. I love well designed, innovative, and well crafted coins produced by a top mint. I love high relief coins. I love silver. I love coins that are very low mintage and are first in an exciting new series. This brand new silver coin hits all my sweet spots. Links are below. It&#039;s minted by one of the finest mints in the world, the Mint of Poland. There&#039;s&nbsp; even a video which shows the actual coin...it rocks, literally, because it actually contains a real piece of volcanic rock (cooled and solidified lava)!</p><p><br /></p><p>This stunning, domed coin is called Volcano Erta Ale. It&#039;s a 50mm, 99.9 fine silver coin that could be a contender in 2015 for some coin awards at Krause.</p><p><br /></p><p>Here&#039;s the description page from a USA coin dealer I trust (I can attest because I have bought a few coins from First Coin Co):</p><p><a href="http://firstcoincompany.com/S/niue-island-volcano-erta-ale-ethiopia-of-volcanoes-series-silver-coin-2-real-lava-inlay-2-oz-ultra-high-relief-dome-convex-shaped-antique-finish-2014" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://firstcoincompany.com/S/niue-island-volcano-erta-ale-ethiopia-of-volcanoes-series-silver-coin-2-real-lava-inlay-2-oz-ultra-high-relief-dome-convex-shaped-antique-finish-2014" rel="nofollow">http://firstcoincompany.com/S/niue-isla … inish-2014</a></p><p><br /></p><p>Here&#039;s the video...ENJOY!: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-lZD5ZejqL4&amp;feature=youtu.be" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-lZD5ZejqL4&amp;feature=youtu.be" rel="nofollow">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-lZD5Ze … e=youtu.be</a></p><p><br /></p><p>I contacted First Coin just recently and asked them if they have a picture of the actual coin - here&#039;s what they sent me:</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y6/mmissinglink/Coins/Volcano-FCC-sample-coinb_zpscfdc54ab.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
