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?

commems, I have great news for you.

The September release will have a coin depicting a gigantic B.C. Salmon swimming off with an Eagle in its mouth. It will definitely be a must have for your collection. N'est pas?

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".

Ha Silveroid!

I was joking. I just made it up about the Salmon carrying off an Eagle to amuse commems.

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.

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.

If anyone missed out on the first Maple Canopy coin (Spring) there is an auction ending in 30 minutes and its well below issue price.
