Go to the sellers items and click completed items on the left side:

But you need to read carefully:

This listing was ended by the seller because the item is no longer available


They probably under priced the roll and pulled the auction. They just sold a roll for C $34.95 + $10.00 Shipping. Need to read all the details.

I use my I phone, I select all Canada coins, then in the search bar I type what I'm looking for. Example 2013 coins. Then under the refine button, I can select different options like price, completed auctions/ Solds then I select search. I need to mention I'm using the mobile app, it's awesome. I don't bother sitting at the computer anymore. I just discovered when looking at a sellers listings, I can see their completed auctions by selecting completed auctions under the refine button. The mobile app is easier to use, than doing an advanced search on the computer. Rox

So what are your thoughts on that coin for those who have seen it and have it in hand? The Mallard? Is it about the same as the bird series?

I saw it this Mallard coin at the PO, but not buying it. Because I did order the subscription box and coin.

To me, It looks a little weird when you place this coin in the Canada Bird Series.

Yes but the 25 cent coin seams to be averaging around $50. One even sold for $89 with shipping. I think the 25 cent coin will average above $50. If this is the case you will achieve a return of $10 per coin, same as the silver coin. If I'm going to make $10 a coin I'm going to do it with the cheaper one. I can put out $340 for ten 25 cent coins and sleep comfortably. Spending $700 for ten silver coins and get less ROI would make me sleep poorly.


Are you still sleeping comfortably dooby? ebay lsiting for the 25 cent mallard are now "buy it now" for $35

not good

10 dollar mallard doing quite well

25 cent Mallard are BIN $35 right now, but I think in a year or two it'll be over $100. Birds of Canada collectors and Duck collectors will want this one. Also the 17,500 mintage isn't too high for a coin like this.

The silver coin will hold up too, but return value in the long run will be better for the 25 cent version IMO.

Highly doubtful the 25 cent Mallard will sell for more than $100. Simple reason; 17,500 is too much quanity for it to become valuable.

The silver mallard is a relaly nice coin. The painted ducks on the nice shiney silver makes it attractive IMO...I think it looks way nicer than the 25cent duck coin....the 25cent duck coin just lookes like a sticker almost....the silver mallard defiently lookes better in hand then on the site!
