I'll be getting the $50 for $50 and that's it... Which brings me to MC status :).

Had the bald eagle coin depicted an eagle scene I didn't already have on a coin, I might have been tempted. But I have all the "eagle holding fish" coins that I need!
Looks like I will be sitting this release out!

Buyer fatigue seems to be upon some...er...many.
Yes agree re new deer series...another decent design to kick off a 4 coin rapid fire series...and...wondering if the moose is next for this edge lettering concept and whether moose designs can succeed like the eagle and bison?

Just got the RCM email a few minutes ago announcing the new $50 for $50 Owl - no tax no shipping charge - ordered...That's it for me in August from the RCM. Am looking forward to receiving the Ballet coin in September though

Salmon swimming off with an Eagle in its mouth. It will definitely be a must have for your collection. N'est pas?

Quote: The September release will have a coin depicting a gigantic B.C. Salmon Salmon again, after July release? Well, probably it might be 5oz coin (for $499) to show all the allegory of this first nations tale. @Commems: I know that it wouldn't heppen, but sure you didn't pass over the "Mercanti" design Eagle by Perth Mint. Or you collect only the RCM and US Mint coins?

Looks like a cheap month. Some decent items but nothing that screams "buy me".

The 1/2 ounce silver Bison shows as Awaiting Stock. With a mintage of 40,000, how is this possible? A Buffalo stampede?  I presume it will become available in the near future.

I'm not sure why the Mint has those coins set as "Awaiting Stock" right away but I suspect it has to do something with the subscriptions.

Quote: The 1/2 ounce silver Bison shows as Awaiting Stock. People disappointed by commissioned Bison 4-coin series and already completed all the stock of this one. Hot coin and not expensive. But to be serious: this is looks like new RCM tactics - starting to the 2-nd coin in subscription, as the first batch they issuing amount of coins equal to the existing subscription plus some more, and immediately take them away from the stock, since they mostly belong to subscriptions.

It could be due to the subscriptions, but I have a hard time believing that so many folks subscribed to this cheesy second version.
