@ SPP-Ottawa, I don't agree that the limit for MC should be one per coin, but I do believe that there should be limits. Somebody suggested that for mintages 5000 and less, it should be 1. Sure, why not. That's OK by me, for other coins that have much larger mintages, like the 250,000 $ 20 for $ 20, setting a limit of 1 seems kinda ridicules.

If I'm able to get my hands on a set, is it really worth it compared to other 5 coin sets issued by the mint like the Maple Leaf issued back in 2002 or 2003?

From what I understand, most post offices order what they want to get shipped in to their individual post offices from their head office, and if they don't order within the first hour of availability to them then they usually miss out as well. You need to talk to the manager of your local post office and find out when they get to even order them. It could be possible to get one if you get there pronto. I had missed out on the enameled poppy dollar 2 years ago and was able to get that through the post office. I think it had sold out before public release.
If you watch out on J&M coins in Vancouver I find he doesn't usually jack prices up initially

The 5oz and 1/25 gold are both cheaper than RCM. *sigh* |

Do you have to pay duty and/or taxes if a Canadian item is shipped from the United States to Canada?

It's hit and miss. Sometimes I get charged. Sometimes I don't. If so it should only be your tax rate based on what province you are in.

...and I forgot to mention that you'll have to call to order this set. This basically means one per customer.
