@PrinceD11. Here is the reverse side of the 1oz Beaver  The capsule is a bit dirty, but I am too chicken to even clean it  The design of this coin looks too busy to me. The pro is that there is a lot of details on the beaver, you can see each individual fur. But the con is it can take a few seconds to understand the design. Maybe it is just me, but at first glance I thought it was a big beaver mounting a smaller one.

Thanks for the pic...great detail...I see what you mean about the mounting! I am debating about this series as unjust bought 2 of the 5 oz maples. I really like the animal coins, so I keep flip flopping about the subscription. Any suggestions?

PrinceD11: Better to subscribe the the series NOW and then decide latter, when you have the coin in hand. Why? Because the subscription is soon or already sold out AND you can return/cancel the subscription after receiving the coin(s).....

If it's showing Awaiting stock, you should call the Mint direct line. You should be able to place an order over the phone. Good luck.

This, unlike the 1/2 oz, is only 8500 so it might sell out before they release the pictures of the next animals.

Welcome, solarmotor  and thanks for pictures Amazing series, this what "Wildlife" coins supposed to be. Also, like Shopaholic, find the design very busy, but for this series prefer this way - detailed animal in its environment, rather then just animal.
