Somebody has been busy inside the mint during their lunch break.

Bizarre eh? Someone is likely risking their job with those pictures for a 60$ profit. And the seller has many sales so it wouldn't be hard to find him.

If the RCM gets upset when we post a few pictures of MC releases, imagine what they would say about this ebay listing. Good thing they don't read the forum.

Anyway, on the topic of the coin; it's not very impressive. It will still sell well but I would say that is because of the novelty not the quality.

They probably scanned it from the brochure at the post office

Could be from the Canada Post brochure. The pictures do look very similar.

Some of the verbiage is similar too. Of course the spelling of dinosaur is a little different.

Not available for order from the mint yet - even for MC.

But you can buy it on ebay. Spy photos?



I'm showing the listing was removed.

Maybe I like this series blindly, I really like the 2nd coin and disagree that the coin is ugly. I saw a National Geography Documentary and a skeleton model in a museum. I believe the coin reflect the dino accurately, at least definitely not a cartoonish design.

I will buy some for sure.

Although have to agree it is ugly, I still buy some to complete my collection.
Do not want a miss or regret later.

So the lady at the post office allowed me to take a pic of this coin out of the brochure... Is it illegal to post it still?
I think it's kind of neat looking. Plus it's from Alberta which interests me. :)
