I was fortunate enough to get a bunch of Lady Bugs and Bumble Bees during the Master Club pre sale. When all the dust settles once the third and final coin of the series is released, does anyone think the prices on these coins will drop?

There is only three coins in this series? Where did you get this information from? I don't see the Mint discontinue such a popular coin. For example, the Maple Leaf coin series is still going strong with 5 coins.

There is an auction that ended on ebay a couple of days ago that had a pair of Lady Bug and Bumblebee Coins selling for more than $1000 ($1041 CDN). That meant the lady bug coin sold for $800 since the bumblebee coin goes for $200 on ebay.

What do you all think about the future of this coin. It is really slow these day. list $200 for a months, no reply. Same thing happen to other sellers. Or people just wait for the Mint shipment on September and get it at issue price?

@CC-Ottawa, how about a group picture with the ladybugs and bumblebees together? :)

That would be a good pic except I only have one ladybug and it's in off-site storage (as these will be tomorrow).

That's a great pic to show how every bee is different.

Cool. I do not know that every bee out of 10K bees are different.

I always wonder, how do they stick the bee onto the coin? Glue gun?

There are slight differences in the bees. Some are fatter, some have fatter stripes and some are longer than the others. One is even very close to the yellow centre of the flower while the rest are farther away. I snuck a quarter into this one and tried to get a little closer to show the variations of the glass bees.
