I watched the live stream.
I was surprised the coin wasn't placed in a tray right out of the press. What if they dropped it. Is it not a piece of Canadian history?

It looks like all the KCIII items are on pre-order and won't be shipped for another 2-3 months. Yeah, the cards are in February, and the rolls are in mid-January. I have been trying all day to place an order and finally to my cart but it is not letting click on checkout - nothing happens. |

The RCM website might be open again. I logged in at 4:00am today and was able to complete my KC order. Quote:

 I kept getting "too many redirect requests" and nothing would load. Tried again after two hours and was able to get my order in! |

His pose seems awkward to me, like he's looking over his shoulder.

Interesting. I did not notice before, but it is quite obvious now you mention it.

Coronation was 6th May, 2023. It seems that RCM has some business strikes bearing a 2023 date are destined for circulation. It also seems that circulation coins bearing a 2023 date may be relatively scarce. To my eye, the RCM definitive obverse for Charles 111 for Canadian coins circulation is OK, and near enough to accurate. I was never keen on any of the obverse designs of QE11 1990-2023, British obverse designs better. |

So golly gee, what is the RCM going to do with the five million dollars it gets NOW until they actually send us the coins we bought?  Actually, I don't care, but the wait time between 'buy' and 'get' bugs me. I have no issues with the RCM with the majority of my purchases, but I'd rather just be told that an item will be released in the future, and that I could purchase it at that time, instead of the 'buy now - get two or three months from now' process.  A lot of us coin collectors are of 'advanced' age, so I'm hoping that I'll still be around by the time the King Charles coins are delivered.  |

 However my order of two "2022 Dated Last Strikes Uncirculated Set" were ordered ( RCM) on Nov. 15 and arrived at my door Nov. 17. Impressive to me. The Charles III sets will arrive, I think, sometime in February 2024. As one of the 'advanced' age group, I await their arrival with baited breath. Edited by Sharks
