New tag: "Meteorites"

I propose to add a subsection "Meteorites" to the Space tag. This can be applied to coins made of meteorite metal and with meteorite inserts, which are becoming more and more numerous.

Some examples:

5 Dollars - Elizabeth II (4th Portrait - Meteorite - Silver Proof) - Australia – Numista

1 Dollar - Elizabeth II (Campo del Cielo Meteorite) - Niue – Numista

5 Cents - Elizabeth II (Pterodactylus) - Niue – Numista

1 Dollar - Elizabeth II (Seymchan) - Niue – Numista

English: "Meteorites"

French:  « Météorites »

Spanish: "Meteoritos"

Regards. Alex

I would agree but make it as

Asteroids, Comets and Meteors

This section can also exist, but I mean Meteorites. More and more coins are being produced made of meteorite metal or with meteorite stone inserts. What you offer - Asteroids, comets and meteors - these things are impossible to touch with your hands and the coins will only have their images.

Regards. Alex

Hello Alex,

then your request resembles something more that should be added in 

the Composition / Material field then a request for a tag as it would not make sense to exclude other items with pictured Meteorites.

Pay attention to how many Meteorite coins the system finds. Of these, only 2 coins have images of meteorites, and the rest are made of meteorites or with meteorite inserts.

When searching for Asteroid - there are only 8 coins and 6 of them have meteorite inserts.

Search Comets - gives only 5 coins with images of Comets.

Find for Meteors - gives 14 coins, 9 of which have meteorite inserts

Still if there are coins with Meteorite inserts this should be reflected in the Composition / Material field.

We always have to look at the whole picture and I do see a missing tag .

In older items there will be plenty of Meteorite/Comets and Asteroids on Coins/Tokens and Medals
