They do not have it on hand.

I think this is a really cool idea, and I wish the RCM did the same for all the silver dinosaur coins.

OK, Now that J&M don't have stock, what's the alternative to paying through the nose on ebay for this coin? This coin is hotter than the bumblebee coin. I went to the Mint Store in Vancouver, BC, yesterday and they say they don't know if they will have stock. How about the Post Office? Has anyone seem them there?

I have not seen any other dealers with this coin at issue price anymore.Ebay would be better right now to get 1 gatewest is selling them for $70 plus shipping at the moment. Don't wait too long the price will increase some more I can see it hitting at least $150 by july.

Wouldn't surprise me to see $150 or more for these coins. Kids love dinosaurs and I'm sure they will want to collect the entire collection. Very similar to what's happening to the bird series.

Kind of annoyed that the shipping was delayed again. I really can't wait to get it. Really hope the value just keeps on soaring.

While it might be very popular and in demand right now, it will be a at least a year before the market settles. When I read several posts here about how people are buying like 30-50 of them, I question the balance between collectors and resellers. Right now it is selling so well because it is sold out and no one has them in stock yet. I don't expect to see a Nuthatch here, but it looks like it will still do very well.

Why would it not be as popular as the bird set I think it will be look at the first dinosaur set and how popular that is the first coin in that set sells for about $300 with an original price of $42 for only a half oz. of silver and it came out in 2007. And yes I am a reseller and what ever I make off them or any coin I would be happy with whether $10 or $500. I am also a collector and as such I have to sometimes pay a premium for coins I want($560 mongolian hedgehog) and I do not begrudge the seller because they are making a profit.

^I am not begrudging anyone. I am just pointing out the fact that a lot of people are buying 30-50 of these, which means there are a lot of resellers. I just don't see this getting up to the price of the Nuthatch. Also, the dinosaurs cooled off. You can now get a 2007 dinosaur for about $200 on ebay if you wait for a bid auction (There is a buy now one available for $225 with free shipping). The Nuthatch is over $300.
