commems CCF Master Historian of USA Commemoratives United States 12252 Posts	Posted 03/29/2012 2:55 pm I purchased this Collector Card from a fellow collector recently due to the medallion's tie-in with the 2008 commemorative silver dollar for the 2008 RCM Centennial. The medallion features the same design as the silver dollar -- a maple leaf emerging from a coin and transforming into a Common Loon. The medallion appears to be a nickel planchet the size of a standard Loon dollar. The card is 5" x 5". The collector indicated that he received the card and medallion as a gift from the RCM for being a Masters Club member. Does anyone know if all MC members received this collector card? Was the medallion also available with (or without) the card at the RCM's locations/gift shops for a price? Any additional info folks may have on this piece would be much appreciated.

Can't see the back of it since it's still in the packaging. Do you know what is there? I have no idea if it was ever for sale or if it has any real value. I suspect not in both cases.
