Bright orange with three black-bordered white stripes, this remarkable fish has natural protection from the stinging cells on the waving tentacles of the sea anemone in which it prefers to live.

This coin is available online and no more than 10,000 Clownfish coins will be released by The Perth Mint. Each coin is housed in a presentation case which comes in a colorfully illustrated box-shipper. When lined-up in release order, the shipper illustrations form a linked image depicting all five reef creatures. Each coin is also accompanied by a numbered Certificate of Authenticity.

$49.99

Benin – Convair 990 Coronado Aircraft – 1000 Francs CFA – 2002 – Proof Silver Crown – Color – The Convair 990 Coronado was a jet airliner produced by the Convair division of General Dynamics, a “stretched” version of their earlier Convair 880 produced in response to a request from American Airlines.

This was still considerably fewer than the contemporary Boeing 707 (110 to 189) or Douglas DC-8 (105 to 173), although the 990 remained some 25 to 35

Cook Islands Ark Royal 2006 One Dollar Crown BU

$19.99

Okay, every now and then there’s an innovation in numismatics that truly bamboozles me. This world coin has (believe it) friction/odor tech (better known as “scratch and sniff”). Now I like the smell of money well enough but this is one step beyond and this coin actually emits the smell of gunpowder and smoke when the image of the ship is rubbed! That’s getting into the buccaneer spirit! And it’s appropriate considering that the “Ark Royal” was the flagship of Queen Elizabeth’s navy in its fight against the Spanish Armada. She saw service from 1588 till 1636. If you’re a collector of world coins and have an affinity for buccaneers, privateers, or ships then this world coin would make an extraordinary addition to your world coin collection.

Now I like the smell of money well enough but this is one step beyond and this coin actually emits the smell of gunpowder and smoke when the image of the ship is rubbed! That’s getting into the buccaneer spirit! And it’s appropriate considering that the “Christian den Syvende,” built in 1767 for Denmark’s schizophrenic Monarch, King Christian VII, was a massive three-decked ship of the line. It had 90 guns and a crew of 849 men and saw about 40 years of service! If you’re a collector of world coins and have an affinity for buccaneers, privateers, or truly impressive ships then this world coin would make an extraordinary addition to your world coin collection.
