I bought the last 5 oz coin at the Vancouver Boutique yesterday. Actually it was off the shelf and stored in the cabinet. The salesperson said he would like to sell it to a customer who asks for and values it rather than a random customer. I appreciate his attitude and spirit.

I just saw it is available on CP website. I am considering grapping another one now.

^ Did you check for defects? I went through several yesterday that had dings through the frosted maple part.

It is a perfect coin. The salesperson said it was a display and they always put the good one on the shelf for display.

According to what I know, no, they do not have any 5 penny set allocated.

I have asked them about that. They said may or may not, they also said try to give them a call everyday to check. They could have 50 sets for 50 lucky individuals.

Not sure how they determine allocation, but I heard the Winnipeg Boutique had 90 sets that all sold out on October 2nd. Must have been a pre-sale.

Canada Post Online has finally sold out this coin. It is no longer available on the website.
Hopefully the price on the secondary market rise more.

The coin was actually sold out a lot time ago. They just didn't remove the coin from their listing that' s all. People who order should log in and check the status of their order;.

I received confirmation of shipping of my 5oz last night. As well as my 1/2 oz and 3rd group of seven.

I hope to have it Monday.

@Coin Chick: Sorry to disappoint you, but Monday is Thanksgiving holiday and there will be no postal delivery!
