Count me as one of those who thought the coloring was standard issue, done at the Mint. So my first reaction was "How could anyone hate them" but after learning this was not done by the Mint, I am at least slightly put off. They're too attractive for me to consider them "defaced" but I don't care for the idea of third party altering.

If anyone really wants these, the colored Grizzly and Wolf are available as part of Colonial Acres Blowout sale email which was just sent out. $99.99 for the Grizzly, and $109.99 for the Wolf.

Edit: Should have finished looking at all the items, they actually have all the colorized Wildlife coins available except for the Bison.

Personally, I'd stay away from this - no clear stated authorization from the RCM.
If you like the look of it, buy it for your own enjoyment the way you'd buy a toy item,
but I'd be worried about its investment value over time - caveat emptor, imho

Prefer the non-colour one.

These coins look like coins with sticker on it.
