I went to a post office and bought it there on the date it was released (Apr. 5)

Just noticed official release of Titanic stuff on Canada Post website.

A more detailed slideshow of the collector set there.

How's the stock certificate for those that have it? Those are quite intriguing.

the stock certificate feels like from last century:), mine is a 100 shares, the images on canada post is a 10 shares.

seems the 50c coin deserves a more detailed photo

those "stock certificates" are not very expensive on ebay, but the 50cent coin is very big and nice.

Mine was shipped yesterday and arrived today.

15 shares that were issued to Livingston & Co and dated May 10/1923. Too bad they aren't from 1912.

Very nice presentation and the 50 cent piece exceeds my expectation.

My set arrived today (Saturday) after being shipped on Thursday -- excellent transit time considering I'm in the southern US!

My set is #9284 out of 10,000. My stock certificate is for 10 shares of Preferred stock made out to Miss Emily L Sarter; it was redeemed/cancelled on 16 January 1918.

Overall, Canada Post did a VERY nice job with the set, it is first-rate from start to finish. I'm definitely happy with the purchase!

I was definitely wondering what the 50-cent coin was going to look like -- I'm with CC-Ottawa, the coin is outstanding and exceeded my expectations as well. Once this coin begins to get distributed, and more collectors see it firsthand, I think they will support a good secondary market for it.

I got the confirmation email last Thursday with tracking number. It says the set is still in the Ottawa facility. Judging by the comments here, I'm really looking forward to seeing the 50-cent coin and what stock certificate I will get. Titanic fans better hurry, I think this set will sell out soon.

Received first of 3 sets today number 8282/10000 with 20 shares certificate awesome set very impressed at the quality of it. The 50 cent coin is much nicer than I could of imagined pictures do not do it justice it is going to command a high premium for the coin alone over $200 in the near future I bet. Glad I put a half dozen of them away!

Received both of my sets today: #9273 with 2 shares - George a Rogers and #9241 with 100 shares Thomson & McKinnon.

The "less than 100 shares" certificates are purple and the 100 share certificates are green.

I echo the sentiments previously expressed on the quality of the fifty cent coin and the set as a whole. Very pleased!

I am impressed with the detail on the fifty cent coin. When you look close you can see the two crew members on lookout.
