gbvbsite - it's all speculation at this point. I'm sure if you keep your internet bookmarked here, you'll be updated as quickly as any m/c member.

1/10 platinum ML... but 20 years ago. The platinum was below 400$/oz at that time. Not bad, but it's not the same value as of today though.

Could it be a Gold Grey Cup Coin?
The suspense is killing me........ How many times do have I have to say that the issue WILL NOT be a Grey Cup Coin! Canda Post is already discounting the CFL coins this weekend. 25% off CFL team coins + another 10% off today. And the Grey Cup Silver dollar is still available every for list price so it makes absolutely no sense to have another Grey Cup coin. Once the Grey Cup is over, interest declines greatly.

One other note about why another Grey Cup coin is unlikely... The Grey Cup is more than "one hundred years in the making," it was first awarded in 1909 (not 1912). The coins issued earlier this year by the RCM marked the 100th awarding of the Cup not its centennial; the Cup wasn't awarded during WWI. So, another Grey Cup coin doesn't seem to fit the RCM's "clues."

With all due respect MP, no one knows for sure what is or isn't happen on Wednesday.
I agree that a Grey Cup coin is a long shot but, the Mint advertised heavily during the game and CP has already issued an "Argo's GC Champions" stamp....

BTW, the Mint announced their final release of collector coins on November 6th. "Ottawa, Ontario, November 6, 2012 â€" The War of 1812 leads the way as the Royal Canadian Mint issues its final collector products of the year with coins celebrating history and Canadiana. " http://www.mint.ca/store/news/more-...out+the+MintA Grey Cup coin, or any other commemorative coin, is very unlikely....unless they date it 2013.

Doesn't look like a new coin release. Could be sale of the some previously minted coins? Or direct Mint's sale of some bullion (gold?) issues...Will be surprised if Mint will decide to release to us their "first time minted 1.5oz fine silver coin" 2013 Polar Bear  Suppose to be something that never happen before.

How about a statement like "Due to the public demand, we regret to announce that the master club will be shut down starting 2013, we will miss you..."

According to today's mail from the mint:
Fine Gold Fractional Set - Year of the Dragon
I think it related to that "gold opportunity"....
Well, I think this money I'll spend on some other their products...
Edit: My mistake, this is an old product. But the mail came just now.

How about a statement like "you are chosen to be the pillar of Master Club and We are going to treat you similar as our coin dealers with 20% discount for all the new release in 2013..."
