SML is always nice , till it covered my milk spots.
This, although not really related, will be good for Panda collectors and as a gift for Asian friends.
But mintage 50.000 makes it available as sand on the beach. Even 5000 isn't low these years.

I guess they are pumping the privys out . 2016 1 oz Privy Mark 'V Tank' Canadian $5 Silver Maple Leaf Country of Manufacture: Canada Denomination: $5.00 Condition: Reverse Proof Date: 2016 Composition: .9999 Fine Silver Silver Content: 1 troy oz Mint/Brand: Royal Canadian MintDiameter: 38mm Coin Mintage: 50,000 Special Features: We are proud to offer the 2016 1 oz Canadian Silver Maple Mark V Tank Privy from our extensive selection of domestic and foreign silver bullion. Each tank privy silver coin consists of one troy ounce of .9999 fine silver, and is manufactured in Reverse Proof state by the Royal Canadian Mint. The reverse of this silver coin features the iconic Canadian Maple Leaf. The Mark V tank privy mark is featured below the leaf and to the left of the stem. "CANADA", "9999", and "FINE SILVER 1 OZ ARGENT PUR" also feature on the reverse. The obverse features a right facing effigy of Queen Elizabeth II, the longest reigning monarch in British history. The obverse also carries the inscriptions "ELIZABETH II", "5 DOLLARS", and "2015". The Mark series tank was introduced in 1916 during the First World War. At the time, the Allied military front in the European theater was mired in trench warfare. The Mark V ended the stalemate, and subsequently changed how military campaigns were administered on the ground. The 2016 Tank Privy Canadian Silver Maple commemorates the 100th year since the Mark's arrival in the theater of war, and the efforts of the Canadian military in WWI.

The Cougar coin is nice and unlike the Privy "Heads" it has full art design.
Thanks for the news!

Finally a cougar coin that the head is proportional to the body and looks great. What are the other coins in the series. The snow falcon looks good too. How many 1.5 oz coins have been released to date. Its only February and how many different RCM bullion coins have been released already. Its getting as bad as their nclt coins.

I didn't realize there was an artic series. thanks Silveroid. I see an auction ending on Sunday for the tank privy is already at $46.33 cad from a US seller. I came across it in the commem section.  Its a high price. I am starting to lose interest in the flood of privies released.

Looking at new commem listings, there's many new color bullion coins. However its just ridiculous with themes as sharks, dolphins, and leopards painted onto the maple leaf. What do theses animals have to do with Canada. Its a European seller, but there's stretching a theme too far. Maybe they will use an elephant next.

I agree, Pocket_Change.... But these probably have really small production, and European folks, looks like have interest to these cross-region designes. And in addition, the starting prices aren't high, as for example "Burning" series (black paint aka "ruthenium" and painted flames). 1.5 oz Falcon RCM coin looks good, but I will pass - unlike previous 3 coins it doesn't have Northern background (Arctic Fox is true beauty....bought also the Proof one) Predator Bullion Series , that announced at WMF - will get, it reminds the first wildlife coins, and designed by Emily Damstra by herself. Btw... the Wildlife at Berlin WMF:The famous Mongolian series gets "strong player" Saker Falcon. It reminds the Ural Owl and might will revive the interest. Hopefully, it will not start with inflated price. According to the info posted, the "The Coin Shoppe" has their representative at WMF, let's hope , he will bring cool stuff and news from there!
