Question On 1oz. Gold Maple Leafs

poboxw... check the premium on the 1/15 oz Gold Maple Leaf.
Minted as a fractional gold maple leaf and thought to stay as part of the series with a $2 face value... you remember the $2 bill which turned into the twoonie coin.

Well, turns out it was a one year thing, and now this bullion piece is definately collectable... worth many times spot.

Actually, the best part besides a few auto's and talking with them etc. was that they had (really) 2 ea. 55 Gallon plastic barrels filled with ice cold brewskies right in the locker room. And they shared.
Wicked cool thing that happened to me was right after an exibition game with a local team I was asked to help escort Derek Sanderson out of the building and to his car from the locker room. Just me on one arm and another guy on his other arm. Wish we had vid. cam's back then. What a scene.
There were dozens of screaming crazy shirt rippin Women right in our path. I just about got beaten to a pulp. Made it out though. Even my shirt got ripped open and I hit the floor once. Man, those Women are tough. Derek was a piece of work back then. All my friends thought that was so cool and even some of the Ladies too
Aahh, to be young again and again and again.

haha~ I guess hockey wife-wanna-bees can be vicious.
Simply awesome your story.

Here's a sample. I think mintage is somewhere around 5,000. Pretty rare stuff. Preferably one in the original packaging. I think they go for a minimum $250.00 now. @.@
