I don't normally go for this style of coin but...I need to have one so I can say "I have a 'blowie'"!
Of course I could just wander outside with a swatter to get one but it would not be the same. Not sure how I could press a real one onto a coin.

And the Ulysses Butterfly. Issue price $15. Part of 6 coins in the new Bright Bugs Series. Released February 3rd 2014. Expect a new Mint Issue from the RAM soon.
These remind me very much of the Perth Mint Backyard Bugs coins aimed at collector kids.

Why does the RAM have to change it packaging for these sets.
Now I will have to find pages and covers to store them in.
No wonder I am seriously thing of giving the whole thing up....Not Happy Jack!

Welcome aboard the good ship Marketing! Now do you get why I gave up on this crud years ago?
If it can't be got out of circulation, its not a coin, its a souvenir, IMO.
RE: 2014 Currency (Royal Australian Mint) possible things to come - purplepennyhunter - 16-01-2014
I was thinking same. The thing is they always have different packaging so I just use Vario pages in 1c, 2c, 3c and 4c and just use what fits.

Isn't it AWSOME when you really don't give a hoot about the packaging as it doesn't affect how I store the COIN
