A round up of the latest in movie and television coins - Minions, Back to the Future, DC Comics, & more A bit late with this onje today, we thought a quick round-up of the three or four new movie coins wouldn't take too long to get together, but the list continued to grow to [...]
More Chibi! This is the New Zealand Mint's second batch of Chibi coins for June (the've been issuing two pairs per month) and its one of the more unusual outings for the hugely popular series.

More Chibi coins today and the late May pair extends the fledgling Disney sub-series, 'Mickey & Friends' with a second issue, Minnie.
