New Transformer Coins from the Perth Mint That Actually Transform.

The Perth Mint has just released a set of three transformer coins, using lenticular technology.  This means the transformers can actually change images on the coins.

The mintage of these colorful coins is limited to 5,000 coins of each type.  They are rectangular in shape, and licensed by Hasbro.  These are proof quality, 1 oz fine silver coins.

New from Canada, Lost Ships in Canadian Waters

The Royal Canadian Mint has released two exciting coins initiating the series Lost Ships in Canadian Waters.   The coins commemorating the hundredth anniversary of RMS Empress of Ireland start this series.  There are two versions, each giving a unique image of the ship.

The $20 coin is one ounce of 0.9999 fine silver, proof, colorized coin.  It will ship in early October.  There is a limited distribution of two per household, so pre-order if you will want one or two.  Mintage is limited to 7,000.  The images below link to the mint.  We recommend that these be bought directly from the mint.

  

The fifty cent coin is silver plated copper.  It also will shop in early October, and will be limited to three per household.  It is colorized, and comes in a matte proof finish.  Mintage is 15,000.



The images are so different many will want both in a collection.
