The 2022 Australian Dingo Mother and Baby 2 Ounce Piedfort Silver Perth Mint Bullion Coin is Fair Dinkum

The 2022 Australian Dingo Mother and Baby 2 Ounce Piedfort Silver Perth Mint Bullion Coin is Fair Dinkum.

I saw my first example only yesterday, and think it looks great.

Although I think it looks better in the flesh than in the photos!

The fields are matt, while the relief designs are shiny.

It feels good, too!

I wonder how many edge serrations there are?

...

And, before anyone asks:

The answer is...

10, ten, dieci, dix, zehn, tien, dez, עשר, deich, десять (desyatʹ), Shí, Jū, dziesięć...

that's enough for now.

In case anyone is looking at the tube photo disbelievingly, "10, and an inch long piece of sponge"!

😎

Tube looks half empty, and how much sponge fits in a coin less tube? Details are important.

I'm a fan of Perth Mint but this whole series has so far has been of no great interest to me whatsoever. Well produced but in the same design category as their silver Tiger III. Poor/Fair.

No, most important, at least since you have decimal coinage,  δεκα / deka.

Interesting. I agree obviously on the quality aspect, PM are pretty much peerless for me.

The 'Next Generation' series I really like, also the S3 lunars, which are carrying on the mother & child theme, its something a little different in a mass of pretty banal silver coin series.

Horses for courses...
