I don't understand what's going on here. I wonder how many sets the mint sent out.

Why do you want to know about the #s?
i don't care about the COA. Unless it is the first and last #.
my 2 set have COA below 500.

the coa# will show how many are produced, logic will say that the RCM has shipped around 500 sets already.

Everything else the RCM has done in recent time, defies logic... what makes you think they actually print/place the COAs in any kind of order?

Agree with SPP.
I don't think they ship in order from 1 to 5000.

@Tender4848,

~ 20 sets of the 5 coin penny for Colonial Acres sounds about right. APMEX from what I saw had about 22 before it all sold out. I wonder how many Gatewest Coins are getting.

The truth is, not all the gold penny has been shipped up to Oct 17, thousands were still available on mint website.

IMHO, the 5-penny sets are all there waiting for their homey elegant wooden boxes. As for coa, RCM worker very probably just picks a random folded paper within his/her reach then packs the coin off.

Not necessarily. Canada Post gets low COA and RCM may ship faster (e.g. COA #1499/1500 for 5oz Penny are from RCM and my #202 was from CP, ordered and received couple of weeks later)
