Tokelau Yellowfin Tuna Coin

[Cointreau]

Looks quite nice this one. Ian Rank Broadley is the designer.

Much better than that croc coin and keenly priced I think.

Want!!!!

Want!!!!

I saw them first! I've just pm'd Strenue to see if he's going to get any.

Oh, I see it's not from the NZ Mint.

Danny-boy I see you knew about this coin before me.

As always interested in the £. price.

Less than $2 over spot from Gainsville so the pound price won't be too bad.

Gainsville haven't got them in yet, they're casting out their nets. That tuna looks like it's swimmijng

out of the coin. Like it a lot and apparently first in a series.

[watchesandwhisky]

Interested depending on uk price.

[silversword]

Interested. Looks nice, although why they have featured the queen and her handbag on the obverse is anyone's guess

[Danny-boy]

Danny-boy I see you knew about this coin before me.

I'm quick out the blocks.

I want a few of these, love the design.

[Keithoil]

I will also buy some. So I am IN.

The link here stated IRB designed the obverse side (The Queen). And an unknown artist for the reverse.

[StackemHigh]

I do like it and a 1/2 oz version to follow!

 

All good.

Why does america get all these lovely coins with mintages that low (compared to Eagles, maples e.t.c) and we get dog crap

But we've got the Royal Mint who make collector's delights.

Ha ha, why would anybody need anything more than the RM and deep pockets?

But we've got the Royal Mint who make collector's delights.

If this run continues, it might even make the RM look cheap.......................or perhaps not....LOL

[ChrisSilver]

So who's the mint of this? It's legal tender?

I think the fish is ugly, not that they designed it badly, but just they chose an ugly fish. Will do well next to people's sharks.

Not sure if I will buy one.

Hi guys,

 

I have just emailed my contact in NZ, hopefully he will be able to provide more information for us on this coin.

Love the design and will be definitely be sourcing some if I can.

 

I will keep you posted.

Thanks buddy, much appreciated.

I love the design too.

[ChrisSilver]

I hope to also purchase one, that's if these coins are reasonable in price, I am hoping bullion pricing.

[strenue]

My NZ Contact has come back to me, this coin is not a NZ Mint product, so I will not be sourcing from him.

 

I do however have another local source that I can place a pre-order with for those who are interested.

If you are interested in this coin, please reply to this thread or PM me directly how many of these coins you would be interested in.

 

Depending on how many people are interested and the number of coins that you are after will determine the per coin price.

Basically I will place a 10% premium on my source cost of this coin + postage cost to your destination of choice.

 

From early numbers my source price will be ~£15.00 - £15.50

[Keithoil]

Hi Strenue

 

You can put me down for 5 if it works out at £15-£15.50.

Cheers

Keith

What the cheapest shipping available for a single coin, wondering if it's cost effective.

[ChrisSilver]

Gainsville coins have them pretty cheap, $22.57, equivalent of about £13.30

http://www.gainesvillecoins.com/products/167414/2014-tokelau-yellowfin-tuna-1-oz-silver-$5-coin.aspx

Hopefully your able to source for a similar sort of price. £2 additional source price seems expensive even when taking delivery into account.

Mint age on these coins is only 500k, is it a series? If so might be worth buying a tube for those that can as might be a good investment. I'll probably have to just purchase the one.

[Danny-boy]

Lol, Gainsville want $155 shipping for an order of 5 coins at $116.

I'll skip that.
