The topless Palladium Mermaid coin is following me around the net.

Viewed the coin at Heritage (post auction buys) several days ago.
Now it is haunting me as I read the news.
Maybe I better buy it.
Dammit.

...and no links, you fella's are on your own.
I had the same thing happen with a coin I was looking at on Heritage. Whenever I'd look around at other sites, the Heritage ad would come up with the picture of the coin I had looked at. It was sorta creepy
For those of us that do not follow moderns could you add some pasties and post a photo?
These are not United States coins but are from the "Republic of Palau".

This one?

That's it. I can't keep my eyes off of that damn reverse asymmetrical grid.
Nice coin.....just not interested in palladium. Cheers, RickO
My favorite fish!
interesting coin

Are you chasing some "tail", or is she chasing you?
Why isn't the metal listed? I think "essai" means "trial", so it 1 ounce .999 of what? I guess the engraver was too busy thinking about the obverse.
This Mermaid looks familiar but I can't quite place her.
Following you, flashing you, she must think you are very wealthy.
Not a very attractive design and very inferior 'art work.'
Oh.... it's the word "ESSAI" and mechanical curves that entice the OP....
I prefer the lovely lady with a bronze tan. Peace Roy

Well, I wouldn't throw her back. WTH, right?
There were three others when I looked, all around $2000
What fish?
Head or Tail?
Heads I win, tails you lose?

Are we allowed to show the "obverse" of those kind of coins?

We need MadMarty for a ruling.
I knew that the scuba diving on Palau was fantastic but man, I didn't realize how much so. That's some beautiful indigenous wildlife....
I think there is some doubling on it
DoubleD?
Worth it. Any example of the rich numismatic history of Palau is worth adding to your collection.
I typed that whole post without snickering.
How about both?
Hoard the keys.
At least she won't be out buying expensive shoes. Or clothes, for that matter.
Looks like the result of a 5th grade art contest.
What about the 1916 SLQ. Guess she's not a Mermaid

What a fish!
Forget it . I've been there the women smell like fish.
Wworld money shows would be better attended if they had live Palau mermaid displays.
Great transactions with oih82w8, JasonGaming, Moose1913.
It can be done. The Florida FUN show can be moved to Weeki Wachee.

Wow...I found one of those when I was about twelve and carried it for a couple years for good luck.
Sooooo, tone, or is it forever blast white? But I too want one. If only as a great pocket piece to share with my friends.
