Beautiful coin. I saw more pictures nice coloured coins but I any did not hold in my hand yet. Is the colour delete easly or no ? I think that it is only thin paintcoat on the surface. Am I right ?

Erik, yes it appears to be only painted on. I don't know how long they would last in circulation, but I feel they will all be taken out of circulation by collectors and others interested in anything royal.

Here is the coin. Very expensive but very magic coin. I am seing "COIN of COINS " for me  :)  Beautifull colored coin and fairy tale about Nemo is very beautifull too.

Very pretty coins, but I am not a big fan of coloured coins.
Especially NCLT.

Pretty coins but very expensive and may be better put into collection cheaper common coins. I did not know what means NCLT but I found this :

http://www.blackmountaincoins.com/coins/What-Is-An-NCLT-Coin/subpage194.html

NCLT - Non-Circulating Legal Tender coin. It is intristing that are included on Krause Standard Catalog of World Coins. I think it is only bussines and not collecting. Now I changed my opinion about those nice looking coins.

I agree, Erik. I would much rather put my limited spending money towards circulated world coins.
