So, now I've time to check all the coins I received from the Mint but I'm a bit confused.

According to some posts, there are 3 types of the whales coin. Someone has a picture of the 3rd type? Is this one that's listed as an error: http://www.ebay.com/itm/2013-Canada...321287845022 ?

And finally, what's mean the different "Pod" ?
Here is Pod F: http://www.ebay.com/itm/2013-CANADA...221341947284
And here Pod H : http://www.ebay.com/itm/2013-CANADA...221345493015

@Arianzo:

The first type (normal) is where the two small baby whales are "frosted" and the big one is brilliant.

The second type (normal) is where the big whale frosted, as appears in the ebay listing (first picture), and its subtype, with error, it is the second picture in the listing.

Yes, there is a variety and I see this person on ebay has "borrowed" my pictures without my permission for their listing. Looks like I need to start watermarking my photos, not a big deal I just don't want someone to have a bad experience and think it was me.

"Pod" is a family or group of whales.

thanks to fed_ink85, who found this and posted pictures on CCF.

I have 5 packs, and no coin is different from the normal.

I was looking at one of my packs from RCM and noticed I have a pack that all of them are the normal arctic explores (not frosted). I wonder if I can fetch a premium for this error? haha will post a picture later today if I get a chance

Picked up 14 new rolls yesterday. Opened 4 so far and haven't found the variety whale yet. I bet the other ten are the same since were all from the same Mint box. Oh well, only one way to find out!!

I picked up a couple of rolls the same time and place as fed_ink85 at Square One... I haven't cracked the rolls yet but odds are they are in there.
I just received one of the errors today in change at Starbucks.
