November Release

It is not the first time I hear about the situation when people can place order over the phone regardless of their MC status.

When I said GL subscription was available to all, I was referring to Canada residents only at the start of sales & now available to all living wherever & not just Canada.

I'm interested in the Great Lakes subscription but I'm not a MC member yet and I don't feel like waiting 30 minutes on the phone before speaking to a rep.

Usually, when the Mint offer those kind of subscriptions, do they sell out before being available to the general public or do I have a reasonnable chance by waiting?

ducks subs was available for the general public I got one when it was released.....woke up at midnight and grabbed one but it sold out fast

also isn't the ducks sub a 2013 set? on the box it says 2013 so you would think that the last coin would of been realeased in 2013.....will be kinda a strange set if one of the coins says 2014

[quote]The 2014 O Canada 1/2oz and 1 oz look good but cardboard boxes? Come on RCM.

The coloured Caribou and Polar Bear 1 oz coins are also nice. Reminds me of the bullion coins that have been coloured post mint in the past.

The gold plating of the outer ring on the 'new' 2013 1/2oz O Canada set adds nothing to the coins for me.

25k mintage on the 1.5oz Polar bear is way to high as is the $124.95 price.

The 1 oz pond hockey coloured is nice too. The 1/4oz whales (life in the north) is kinda plain and looks a lot like other coins that have been issued. I guess not much you can do to make whales look significantly different. Price at 34.95 is reasonable.

I got a chuckle out of the note on the recycled 2013 O Canada set. It says that all the coins and box with ship 'at once'. I bet their idea of 'at once' is not the same as mine or any other reasonable person.

Also of note, the 11th and 12th coin in the O Canada series are in this quite large release. That seems to indicate that it is thankfully the last release of 2013.

I've been out of the loop since this November release was revealed and haven't yet had a chance to catch up on all of the posts. However I agree with CC-Ottawa's reaction.

I ordered my 1 allowed caribou but is the caribou still available?
