<p>[QUOTE="Ian, post: 32327, member: 283"]I recall alerting people to the first issue and telling them that they should buy it for all the reasons i've already mentioned. Seems that those that listened that time struck it lucky. The Austrian mint was limiting direct purchases to one per person. I managed to obtain one from them and also one from a distirbutor. So I have two of the first <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> . I also have two of the second, and hopefully will manage to get two of the third in due course (i've already placed my order). You should be aware that the thrid one has a limited mintage of 65,000 which is 15,000 more than the first two. Perhaps it might not be a complete sell out like the first two, but you never know. </p><p><br /></p><p>Either way, i'm hooked on these niobium 25 euro coins.</p><p><br /></p><p>If you're based in North America then here's where you can order up the 2005 one (if they haven't reached their limit yet that is)</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="http://www.eurocollections.com/catalog/?product=1365" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.eurocollections.com/catalog/?product=1365" rel="nofollow">http://www.eurocollections.com/catalog/?product=1365</a></p><p><br /></p><p>I have found them to be decent folk, communicative and helpful (and I don't have any special deals going with them either, more's the pity!).</p><p><br /></p><p>Oh, and by the way, the coin of the year for 2004 was a Latvian silver / Niobium bi-metallic.

[QUOTE="Ian, post: 32327, member: 283"]I recall alerting people to the first issue and telling them that they should buy it for all the reasons i've already mentioned.

Either way, i'm hooked on these niobium 25 euro coins. If you're based in North America then here's where you can order up the 2005 one (if they haven't reached their limit yet that is) [url]http://www.eurocollections.com/catalog/?product=1365[/url] I have found them to be decent folk, communicative and helpful (and I don't have any special deals going with them either, more's the pity!). Oh, and by the way, the coin of the year for 2004 was a Latvian silver / Niobium bi-metallic. I don't have it even though I have been very very tempted indeed.
