Pyramid / Meteorite Coin - A 2012 Collectible?

Imagine living in a post-2012 apocalyptic world, due to our planet colliding with an asteroid...

Now, imagine showing your children this, to help explain what happened:



Not only does it show the orbits of the planets, and not only does it have genuine meteorite fragments embedded in the center, but it also depicts Egyptian and Mayan pyramids, and an Easter Island statue!

Great gift idea (hint to Mrs Bast), buy it from the Aussie Mint for $155:

Well, I guess I could show it to my children either way - to say "here's what our solar system used to look like" or "here's how silly we all were in 2009 (but silliness is good)."
