The Newly Realeased Transformers New Zealand Coins

— February 9, 2013 — Art & Design
Out now, the brand new collectible Transformers New Zealand coins can be purchased from the New Zealand mint.

Don't look for them in the cash register because they are so awesome that there is no way these coins will make it into circulation. Made out of .999 silver in a collection of only 5,000, this currency is worth way more than its $2 denomination. One features Optimus Prime and the other features Megatron, two popular Transformers from the cartoon and movie series, in dramatically bold colors. They come in Transformer-themed packaging with a case to put them on display.

Adults who want a meaningful way to reminisce over favorite childhood cartoon robots will want to get their hands on the Transformers New Zealand coins.
