They are all mint pictures except one, and no close ups of his pictures.


The link I posted above allows zoom and they are pretty high resolution pics. Not sure you're going to get any better without actually holding the coin.

I like the flower, nice effect! But man, is that one ugly frog!

I think I'm going to cancel my order! Suddenly the butterfly, bumblebee & ladybug are looking better and better...

I purchased the frog (adds to the set), the legend of Nanaboozhoo (very nice looking coin), and the Alice Munro coin (patriotism).

I think that I might also pick up the Arctic fox. Any thoughts on this coin?

Cheers.

I think the Arctic Fox should do very well.

Peregrine Falcon proof had 20k mintage and a bullion version
Polar Bear Last year 15k as Silver Proof and a bullion Version
Arctic Fox only 7.500, unfortunately a small difference to bullion as it is only 1 oz

But here in Europe Good demand for proof coins were also a bullion version exists

The fox is an odd one for me. They call if a premium version of their bullion coin but it's only 1oz. Seems inconsistent.

I bought the 1.5oz bullion coin for 47$ instead.

I did not find these hidden on the mint website, but as a link from the newest media releases.

I like and bought this coin because of the fox.
Realistic and detailed.
Well, I bought the 1 1/2oz bullion too
A wish to see the Proof 1 1/2 oz (like Polar Bear) - will be Fractional mini set, but this will not happen.

In addition, it looks like part of the series...but which exactly?

I noticed that the 'legend of Nanaboozhoo' (coloured coin) is awaiting stock. No wonder. It is a very nice looking coin.

I agree clvlys, that coin caught my eye as soon as it went up! I liked it so much that I ordered two!
