Man, if they release a box at the end of the series, then I might have no choice but to pick up a reindeer, I hate that coin.

Why don't you get it now for $25 or less. Instead of pay more when the series end.

Quote:If the RCM doesn't release a box at the end for the 20 for 20 set, I am going to make my own Yes, agree I started to believe that this endless series, but it doesn't mean that the coins do not deserve to be displayed in the box. I do not have time for box creation, so will try to buy somewhere the best suitable solution... Again RCM with the boxes... What prevent for them to create (outsource manufacture) small variety of presentation boxes with RCM logo for the different coins, and then to sell as accessories? So simple idea

I think this will be an endless series or go on for a very long time. Big seller and has also brought many people into collecting RCM products. The revenue line is $5mm per series and with 4 releases this year thats $20mm just on 20 for 20. It'll be hard to replace that revenue if they ever decide to stop it. I can see them upping it to 50 for 50 or 100 for 100 and bringing mintages of those lower. I really do like that case for 2013. I wonder if they'll go back and do the same for the previous releases. Entreprenurial opportunity for someone for sure with 200,000 + coins out there.

there are some available on ebay. Some may recognize the seller.  Too bad they put the hockey coin instead of the wolf on the cover. Hopefully the mint will find a way to make them available though I'd prefer a way to display all of the 20 for 20s together - not just the 2013 coins. http://www.ebay.com/itm/3-CANADA-20...em1e7942c35b

I agree CC-Ottawa it would be nice to get a full display of them if/when they stop the series. Someone had pics of the box they were experimenting with on another thread. Thought it was really well done.

It baffles me why they wouldn't make these available online for ordering. Even if it were a temporary solution before a box, a lot of people would want to order these. It's just unfortunate that the RCM hasn't been consistent with the sizes and shapes of the certificates through the series. Weren't most of the early ones rectangular before moving to the squarish size?

taro, so there's a pocket for COAs? Cool! This explains why 2013 COAs been reduced in size.

Yup. The left side is a sleeve for the COAs, fits 4 nicely. The coin holders fit with the capsule. The only piece that doesn't have a place is the plastic pouch the coin comes in.
Also, I don't think this item will go into a bubble wrap very well. I would only ship it in a box. The thing is cardboard and can be damaged very easily due to the pocket for the COA and the "Spine" being made out of paper..

Something else for me to ask my Canadian source of the $20 for $20 for.
Soon I will have all but the Reindeer (this will come in the future)and the very first one (no idea where I will get that one from).
I always wonder why mints think of stuff like this after a series starts.
Wouldn't you need to know when the series would stop and how many would be in the series to make a box?
