Wow, thanks for the heads-up, guys. Hopefully pictures to follow? :) Is the set serialized, then?
Now let's see how the market would react.

SilverBug: It sounds like they tried hard to make you think it's worth $140. :) You have a wonderful trip! Hope you are not coming this way. We had around 20cm snowfall since last night over here.

Set sounds really nice. I'm hoping it doesn't sell out before my birthday, but slim chance since it's still 3 months away.

Thank you for posting the pictures. It is the first real photo I have seen of the fifty cent.

Yes, thanks for sharing the photos!
What are your thoughts on the look of the 50-cent coin? It appears to be nicely done based on your photo.

thanks @SilverBug for the preview.
Nice to see what is coming and get a look at the 50¢ coin and to see that the collection is serialized. I wonder if that means all the clam shell 50¢ will be numbered 10001-15000. Hopefully CP will mail out their orders soon.

Just received the Numismatic Cover from Canada Post a few minutes ago. It is a nice collectible in itself. I am liking the quarter more than I thought I would.

I should get my PNC today too. It was shipped last week.
Oddly, the 25 cent from the mint was awaiting stock and unavailable for order for about a week, then this morning, it was suddenly available for ordered for a couple of hours, and now it's awaiting stock again. (kinda like the glass bee). Strange.

Thanks for the pics, SilverBug! My order with CP is still under processing.
Now I wonder if the set would survive April since all the attentions have gone to the bees, and perhaps the dinos. If there are no more delays, we may receive the bee and the individual 50 cents Titanic together in late April or early May. It might be a happy season for the dealers.

you are all welcome. Seriously? after pages of pages of talking this is the first real photo  ? I'm curious about the COA on 50 cent from RCM. should it be xxxx/5000 or xxxx/15000?
