Obsession: Metal Coins

These coins are substantial, thick and heavy. The pleasure of metal coins begins here, and any pretty coin that is as light as plastic is not a coin worth having. This set of coins weighs almost 3/4 of a pound (over 330g), and each coin is 3.3mm thick! They weigh twice as much as typical coins. These coins feature a very young Queen Victoria on the £100 coin and a slightly older Queen on the £500 coin. No elderly Queens here. The backs have Obsession elements (lion rampant, fleur-de-lis, courtship couple, starter guest crown, tile rose), yet these coins will fit like a glove in any Victorian-era board game. These coins stack. Similar to the poker player who manipulates chips, a gamer does the same, stacking and restacking coins, organizing them constantly. Coins that don't stack just end up in a sloppy pile. These beauties take up the same volume of space as the cardboard coins (which are large) and fit perfectly in the official Obsession insert from Shipshape Gamer. —description by the publisher
