For anyone interested, taro-chan has posted a pic of the Piedfort coin over on the RFD board. Maybe he'll post it here soon......?
Coin looks fantastic from the pic!!

Here it is.  It looks ok. I wish the relief was higher. Also, I personally find it too busy.

Thanks for posting here too taro-chan! Funny, I love all the background maple leaves with different finishes. Disappointing if the relief isn't too high though.....

Looks nice and busy. Will not say that it "not high relief", but compares to "mask" coins - the relief isn't high.
And something about that specific coin (COA):
9947 99.47 99.4+7 99.11 99-11 = 88,
1988 - this is actually the first SML, which now celebrates 25-Anniversary, what exactly appears on the coin.

Sold out at CCC already...darn and I had it up to buy it earlier from them this morning but didn't pull the trigger, oh well you snooze you lose. Still have the one from the mint on order when ever they decide to ship one to me lol.

None of new October releases on CP website ($20/$20 Santa is). May take a few days to be posted.

For those who missed it, I just got it from thecoinshoppe, still available at issue and limit 2. http://www.thecoinshoppe.ca/1-oz-fi...10-000-2013/Free shipping for +250$ orders so I added an eagle (which is also awaiting stock from the mint) to get free shipping.

Thanks TIPIT I ordered one from them, I just like to have at least 2 of the coins that I want and with the mint putting a limit of 1 on some coins now I have to buy elsewhere , I guess its the mints master plan to have dealers sell more or something , who knows, Good price at thecoinshop still for these.

Talisman still has more than 50 in stock. It doesn't necessarily mean you'll get what you order though... :)

I guess Taro got this coin from Ottawa Mint Boutique. They have this coin for sale today.
