Now I am crushed!!! Taking a thing of beauty and painting it? NO gold deserves to be shown such disrespect with paint, stickers or decals. And to add insult to injury it is a BUFFALO!!!

And another goldplate
I think about 20% of the coins on offer are goldplated now and they show up in the gold category in france

What a HUNK!!!

[humpybong]

Ow c'mon Nancy......eyes right.......to me the obverse and reverse are from 2 different coins??

Not what you are looking at!

[Nevol]

Aw shucks, you mean I gotta get my mind outta the gutter?       

I can see what you mean, but I was more interested in the Hunka Burnin Love.   

[Paint Your Wagon]

The coins are even from two different countries So Curlyknot is knotted over the cook Islands 

[Paint Your Wagon]

PS
He seems to be standing on his right leg only and what you see should be his left foot
So to me it looks like a clever illusion 

[Paint Your Wagon]

He got a lot of quaint items 

[Twoshadows]

Hey Paint Your Wagon, thats NOT his left foot! I have, or did have,  Cook Island full frontal view of their fertility God and he does have two legs and is quite well blessed for such a little guy!

Common my friend
Are you telling me they are circumscribed or technically without foreskin
I think the designer is showing a left foot and a big toe and laughing to hell

[Twoshadows]

Well I am not sure who designed the fertility God but do remember the English liked to have a cow when the Queen showed up on the obverse of a full frontal design on the reverse. Don't remember, off the top of my empty head, just what year it was minted but it did cause a stir! You should see some of their currency. Beautiful native woman with bare breast riding a dolphin! Very pleasing design and much more attractive than the coin in question!
