CC-Ottawa Pillar of the Community Canada 3690 Posts	Posted 01/08/2013 2:36 pm Complete surprise - it just showed up in the mailbox. Lettermail - no signature. Very high COA too. 38,8xx Edit to add. The only hint on the RCM tracking/profile page that anything shipped is that my MC end date changed to Jan 7/14. The order for this set remains as processing (item status = new order) as do 3 or 4 other orders for coins that I received weeks/months ago. And my profile was flipped again to show 'no' for e-mail updates. I've changed it to 'yes' 3 times in 2013 already. Edited by CC-Ottawa 01/08/2013 2:51 pm Report this Post to the Staff
Lostwords Pillar of the Community Canada 1528 Posts	Posted 01/08/2013 2:59 pm Did it comes with a clamshell case (Since you have the subscription and will get the box later)? Edited by Lostwords 01/08/2013 3:02 pm Report this Post to the Staff
CC-Ottawa Pillar of the Community Canada 3690 Posts	Posted 01/08/2013 3:04 pm No clamshell. It's the first of the subscription - the wooden box comes with the 3rd coin. If you order just the Inukshuk coin individually, you get a clamshell. Edit to add: the encapsulated coin and the COA are in a clear plastic pouch (like the 20 for 20s) and the pouch is stuck to a black paper folder that has the Mint logo on it.

I have several where I have one from the RCM and another of the same coin from CP. Sometimes RCM is higher COA and sometimes it's lower. Report this Post to the Staff
Silveroid Pillar of the Community Canada 6768 Posts	Posted 01/08/2013 6:40 pm To CC-Ottawa: Did the Inukshuk coin come in the standard capsule for 1/2oz silver RCM coins, or something special? The reason why an asking for - want to know if I can use the case (which I think to buy from the Gatewest with the Inukshuk) for any 1/2 coin (issued by RCM). Report this Post to the Staff
CC-Ottawa Pillar of the Community Canada 3690 Posts	Posted 01/08/2013 7:14 pm Standard capsule. Are you sure that you get the coin and box for 40 bucks without signing up for the rest of the coins? I just looked at the Group of Seven large box and coins on Gatewest's site and it doesn't mention that it's a subscription. But I have to think it is...

But I have to think it is... Maybe not. I picked up the case and first two coins from Gatewest (months ago) but did not have any obligation for further purchases. I've actually picked up coins #3 and #4 from the RCM. Maybe it will be a similar situation for the new series. Collecting history one coin or medal at a time! (c) commems. All rights reserved.

CC-Ottawa Pillar of the Community Canada 3690 Posts	Posted 01/08/2013 8:20 pm Thanks commems. Did you pay more than 2 times 89.95? I'm sitting on the fence. If it really is 40 bucks for the coins and case, I'm in but if it's a subscription, then not interested. Report this Post to the Staff
