Saw it advertised on TV. My personal opinion is that it's a product that isn't worth the metal in it and probably will never will be. Legal tender of a remote Island nation?
But for a Corvette memorabilia collector it's probably a nice conversation piece. IMHO.

Well at least they were honest in the ad, it costs $24.90 and is actually worth $1.
Doesn't seem like a very good investment to me.

It's not a good investment but most collector type pieces are not. I think it would make a nice card protector for poker.

I think it's JUNK!
And this is a C5 Forum. Why would a C5 owner buy a C6 coin?

I would be way more interested in the Jessica Simpson Coin with the same flashing headlights option!

Why does all the corvette memorabilia have to have a yellow vette when they only make up 20% of all vettes made
