New Zealand Mint TF coins

BlitzFire · 01-25-2013, 10:32 AM

I imagine this has probably been reported, but I tried searching with New Zealand Mint, transformers coins and it gave me about 100 hits each with nothing in the title suggesting this lol

Anyways...if already reported, please lock/delete

For $233.66 USD, you can set up a preorder to snag yourself 2 pretty snazy coins. One featuring Optimus Prime and the other Megatron (who else?).

How awesome?

puma · 01-25-2013, 01:11 PM

how does this make sense?? Why would the Mint of this country even make these.... I'd love to have a set but i'm not spending that. I'll wait for the infomercial and get them for the special introductory price of $19.99 plus S&h... Maybe i'll even get a special gift that i have to pay a separate processing fee for and S&H.

You don't see that every day!

Awesome!!! But, completely overpriced. At most this should sell for $30

Lol typical of what expect to see here as normal its worlds cheaper to buy over seas then here, im not going to post my political veiw on these things....

The spot price + markup for profit + insurance and shipping should make these for about $40-$45 each, -or- $80-$90 for the set of two, not $200+. Unless these are 10oz silver coins they won't find many buyers. I can go to APMEX.com and buy 3 or 4 coins for this price....

...the good news is that once the price deflates it may be a good chance to pick up some quality silver for less than spot (maybe)...

Maybe it will come with a free football phone.

Wicked cool. But way too overpriced. This set should be about 80 dollars. I don't know how they came up with over 200.
