Delay must be related to production. It can't be too easy a process when extracting an appropriate piece from this space rock to look right for this design theme....

"proactive plastic case"...what is that? I didn't get one.

Are they saying that they don't have capsules for this coin?

I think you're right...probably a typo.

No protective case/capsule? Doesn't make sense.

No capsule? Trying to sell Bromberg's on-air demo coin....complete with fingerprints?

Good decision to cancel the order. No chance anyone would want that even with the generous $20 discount.

The C/A weekly scratch and dent sale shows that complete as issued is important in NCLT collecting. Missing packaging, scuffed or cracked capsules routinely mean 50% discounts.

@donaldo

How many coins did you cancel?

I have 6 coming to me and didn't receive a phone call. I hope I don't get one. I can't imagine that the mint would send coins without the capsules. So they are probably what CC-Ottawa has said. Demo coins. Nice try Steven.

"Plastic protective sleeve" is strange definition for the capsule.

Is this coin so special, so the CC&C / TSC will sell the "demo" coin without a capsule?

I think, it standard protective sleeve, which covers the cardboard box. Package. It is not really plastic, but CSR easily might mistake.
Well, this my assumption, but I think that's the case.

I truly believe that CC and C has a very special relationship with the RCM and those promo coins we see on the show are RCM supplied not for sale units or we would see them every so often being offered for sale of these open units. Just hard to believe packaging would be such an issue on this coin, it's a small piece of rock
