@CanadianCoins1999: where did you get that price? I was about to order one, but then realize 349 euro = 467 CAD = 471 USD plus shipping...
@poboxw: are you gonna buy one "Argali sheep" to complete the set?

@beautyisgod: i bought mine (2 owls, my folks wrestled the other away) for $125-150 each, so issue price as to be that or lower. Had to go to the ebay for them. And I'm not a big fan of US mint commemorative coins so can't help you there. @Silverbug: nah~ it's not as if I have any other of the Mongolian silvers anyways, and I'm happy enough with the owl representing Mongolia in my 'round the world collection |

@Silverbug
Sorry for the mistake, it was about 300 euro when it first came out on powercoins, but then I realized the price jumped by 50 Euro.

Thanks for URL, CanadianCoins1999
Regarding Mongolian series:
were minted by Germany Mint (if I am not misstaken), 2 first coins - 2007 Gulo Gulo and 2010 Ural Owl were available initially for near issue price ($69-$129), and it took long time to Gulo Gulo accumulate it's current price.
The "big jump" was, when Gulo Gulo won the COTY Award, and 3-rd coin issued - 2012 Hedgehog. The Hedgehog's pre-sale price was ~EUR 149, and then jumped to $400-$500.
Missed Gulo Gulo, was aware about Owl, but at that time wasn't interested, and bought "Hedgehog" - never seen before Hedgehog on the coin, and already began with "all-over the world" collection. The Hedgehog's design, I believe, repeats design of Australia 5 cent, with Echidna on all the coin's surface.
Added:
Finally decided not to buy 2013 coin from this series...as Poboxw mentioned, one representative is enough, except this IMO the new one isn't beatiful as previous 3.
