@ RogerD:

Here is the Platinum Bison. I agree it would be a very successful coin in this series if made in silver.

Someone in another thread or this one also mentioned that the Musk Ox design in the platinum series was bad, so here is a musk ox from the platinum series:
Pronghorn-Antelop---Coin-#-5-In-The-Wildlife-Bullion-Series

I find this Musk Ox design more attractive than any of the Silver wildlife series. In my opinion, the Silver wildlife series if poorly done. If you look at the detail in the Platinum series compared to the stuff they have used in the silver series it's pretty sad. But, everyone else seems to enjoy them so that's fine. Either way I think the idea of the series is good and a nice change.

Received my Pronghorn today. The Moose and Wolf are still my favorites.

Bought mine from Colonial Acres at store.
Not as detailed as platinum sets, but still very nice coin.
Hope for the long term, that starting the Moose or Antelope, RCM solved the problem with the milk spots.
The series itself very nice and it great to see all the coins clean and clear.

I have one moose with milk spots, so they hadn't solved the issue back then... let's hope they do at some point...

Where can I buy a set of this wild life series (all 5 coins), each coin is placed in air-tie capsule?
Thanks

I have mentioned this idea many times already for people who want to have all six coins in a nice box that is fairly cheap in cost.

Step one, Acquire the six wildlife coins. Many places online sell them.

Step two, order this six-coin box from Colonial Acres or wherever you buy Lighthouse products.

Step three, order a pack of 10 square capsules for your six coins from Colonial Acres or wherever you buy Lighthouse products. Yes, you will have four left over. Deal with it.

Step four, Assemble everything and **poof** a nice box, that's inexpensive that displays the six coins nicely.

@ Bibo, apart from my idea above, Precious Metal House has put together the first four coins in a box, with air tights.

Why would anyone buy an incomplete set with no room for the last two coins?

@jpaiva83, Thanks for the helpful info.

So there will be total of 6 coins in this series. Anyone knows when the last coin release?

@ Hobbes, that's why I prefer my idea more. The box, the capsules and shipping together are like $ 20 within Canada.

@ Bibo, the Mint originally announced six coins in the series. How many will they really make? Who knows. If they make more, buy a second box for the second series.

Wiki says the last coin will come in 2013, but then, the Antelope coin is from 2013 as well. My guess, within the first three months of 2013. Just a guess.

Thanks! I see the other thread that has been started now with the new image. Looks great! Can't wait to fill the last hole in my display box.
