    Coca Cola Bottlecap Shaped Silver Coin

    Wow, I've never seen anything like this. I wonder how the minting process works? It must take some very unusual equipment to make dies that can strike coins in that shape.

    Not much more than a silver novelty item. Nice idea I suppose.

    At $30 for 6 grams of silver, yeah it's a novelty. But it is interesting, moreso to me than the weird baseball glove shaped coins the US mint did a couple years back.

    That equates to $155/oz. I could get along with that!

    Why 6 grams? 10 grams, 20 grams or go all 31.1 grams but why 6?
