As one of my various collecting themes, I would like to add "(fantasy) coins seen in movies".
I already have a few of them:
The set of coins Harry Potter used to buy candies on the train to Hogwarts:
The silver and golden versions of Zamunda coins (Eddie Murphy's Coming to America movie)
And the banknote
And one of the Double-faced Peace Dollar, used by Harvey Dent to trick others when flipping it.
(yes Peace face on both sides; it's not a mistake)
Please let me know about (fantasy) coins showing in movies (not coins about movies, or to promote them).
Help will be appreciated.
Just 10 options: you understand binary, or you don't.
Catalog Referee Coins, Banknotes & Exonumia: Uruguay, Cuba, Bolivia, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Mexico, Peru, Paraguay, Costa Rica, Venezuela, Panama, Ecuador, Zamunda, Parva Domus and more.
I know the ones from the intro of the Medici series showing Portraits of the actors (they look more like big bronze medals from that era in terms of quality). https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=8chG9yPfx-E#
And there was a short look on a very unrealistically well looking coin showing a Mongolian throne pretender in the Marco Polo series. But I could not find an image of it.
In various tv shows I saw some coins, some totally fantasy ("Vikings", "American Gods"), some real but with mistakes ("Rome"), but that's not really movies so...
In "Black Sails" I don't remember about the coins even if we saw some of them... (but it's a worth-watching show)
Quote: "neilithicman"How about this beauty? The coin's not bad either
Not bad indeed, but there is no coin, just a medallion. Well, if they come together, I can consider to expand my collection.
Thanks.

Also I have seen some fan coins for Game of Thrones, one day I will possibly buy a set of those :)

Also, in "The Hobbit" (I recently re-watched) we can saw tons of gold coins in Erebor where Smaug lies, weird shaped with a dwarf face on it or something like this.

Quote: "Monninen1"No, but I have seen a stamp in the tv series "new tricks".
Well, not interested so far in stamps, but in future, who knows?
