Quote: Just got one from another forum for $160USD Shipped Congratulations for this nice purchase, Lostwords! How it possible? Really. On another forum people afraid to loose a dollar. And also afraid if something else will sell for dollar less (what will have an impact on their sales)

Well not from RFD.... If that what you are referring to...I've look for the same thing here in the "wants" forum and no one even contact me for a price or offer to trade or sell to me... I got it from a forum that has full of stackers. The user bought it at original price and was happy to sale it for more than double the value. I asked how much he wants for it and he offer it at that price and I am willing to pay for it at that price.

Wow, nice purchase.
I believe on RFD they are also great people, but do not like "every dollar chase" atmosphere.
And here (I mean in this situation), with this deal you with the seller both are the winners, because he didn't think about the fact that he could make more money on you, but enjoyed the profit.
Added: Do they have more, for other collectors - for the same or near same price?

I think the 2009 moon coin will go up to $300+ and we will probably see another sun coin soon. My 2 cents.

Looking at mine which I've known has always been worth more than issue price but only now considering possibly selling it. Only kept it for sentimental reasons and am in no rush to rid myself of it.
The certificate # (03245) means very little in relation to the coin but the selling price for it is all over the place. Anyone know why there were only 2834 minted?
$140-400? Made the mistake of selling the ladybug coin too early and while I nearly doubled my money should have stuck it out.
For now, I'm debating on whether to stick to $200, hold for $300, sell it in a club auction or wait for the next (is there a series?) related NCLT to come out that will push it over the edge.

People just were not interested in the coin when it came out in 2009 so the mint didn't follow through on minting the original intended mintage.

 The coin wasn't popular, so the "final" mintage is low. I bought mine year ago, wasn't impressed by the coin, but wanted to obtain some "rare" coin, specially prior release of 2013 Grandmother mask. Paid for it ~ CAD 180 + shipping, and this was great price that time. So I believe $200.00 is good price to sell the coin. Let's see, what will be the new 2014 design.

Thanks, CC-Ottawa. I just forgot, that the release is so close, that people started to list the coins using CP catalogue images.
As all previous designs, this one depicts the mask. Beautiful, nice, interesting or ugly - it just a mask crafted as raised relief on the silver surface of the coin. That why I like them - similar to the "Lakes" series, it just "something else", not commemorative or wild life item.

I will be steering clear from that new moon mask coin. It looks weird with the writing on the left/right sides of the coin and the matriarch isn't quite the most attractive face I've seen, but to each their own if someone wants it!
