Those stamps might be an indication of what the next insect coins will be?

Quote: CC-Ottawa: I thought you already started hoarding ladybug quarters and jelly beans to make special combo, here is the stamp you may find handy I have the quarters, and had a big bag of Jelly Bellys. Was all set to put the mint out of business when I discovered that I had eaten all of the beans.  . So now I have to go back to the candy store to get more 'bugs'. Stay tuned, they'll be ready to ship April 30th...or May 11th...or June 24th...July 1st...or...

A follow-up on the 25-cent tulip: sold-out in Kitchener at $29.95; limit of 1 in Winnipeg at $24.95; no update at Canada Post and the Vancouver dealer, i.e., issue price and no limit.

"SilverBug Posted - 04/25/2012 : 5:19 pm here is the stamp you may find handy" "Mrpiedfort Posted - 04/25/2012 : 5:53 pm Those stamps might be an indication of what the next insect coins will be?" I think these could very well be the next bug coins. the butterfly will be the best seller, and the nicest if they make it.

Plus I'm guessing most were given to kids and are no longer in collectible condition!
Also, the 25 cent bumblebee has been resurrected from "awaiting stock" and is available at the mint again.

I visited my local post office to find at least three tulips at $25, but no aster's. So sounds like I should snap them up?

Thanks for the update, usually the mint sells out before canadapost. I wonder if I should grab 20 from the mint while it's still available.
