like the polar bear coin, the RCM asked goldline to allow canadian distribution but was flatly denied. as such you have only one source and the huge markup. odered a few tubes coin looks nice, but lacks broad theme like the polar bear. |

$50 is roughly the starting price on ebay. Very few sales. Haven't seen this coin anywhere else in Canada. Are any dealers selling it? If so, for how much? It would have to be $30-35 at most before I'd even consider it. Edited by CC-Ottawa

paid 38.25 each about 6 weeks ago when bullion was around 34.00, my guess goldline would sell it today for around 34.00, its a thin coin 30 to a tube.

I would buy a tube for $900 all in, that's $30 a piece with shipping.

For sure the recent drop in Ag spot hurts this coin.
Even at $33, that's a 50% premium on silver content for a bullion coin. The only upside for this one is as a numi and it just doesn't have the appeal IMO. I hope I'm wrong for those of you holding them.

there is no choice with this coin you pay what goldline asks, plus minium order, shipping and brockerage fee.

i agree with cc ottawa, the polar bear coin has better upside. as of 6 weeks ago goldline has sold around 78000 of the 1812 coin to mainly savvy us bullion collectors.

What was the minimum order, how much for shipping and brokerage. I could get it shipped to family in the states.

1200.00 or 1300.00 was minium order or 2 tubes free shipping, but you had to pay fedex broker fee around 30.00

The one and only reason to bring out 8 years old thread:
Looked carefully at my bullion coins (I do not accumulate them, but collect a most interesting for me designs), noticed:
This 3/4oz silver coin, unlike all previous and subsequent 3/4 oz fractional coins has face value: Canada Dollar
Not 1 or 2 dollars, but literally Canada Dollar.
Does it put the coin in same row as regular 36mm Silver Dollars? Probably not. But for people, who expanding their SD collection - might be worth take a look....
