Totally agree doing a box and making a set with it is *totally* ruined by an after-the-fact and boneheaded decision to produce more. I'd much rather see the Harlequin Duck as the next selection in the Birds of Canada, since that set was never displayed in a box. So the Mint has made two stupid decisions--the other being to end the Birds of Canada series. OK, I will stop ranting for now. heheheh

Glad I only paid 39.99 for the 1/2oz O-Canada Colored wolf and northern lights coin. Not nearly as nice in hand as in the photos online.....pretty disappointed. Its the only coin I bought from th 2014 1/2oz O-Canada set............I may return it or sell it. Ill post pictures later

I should receive mine tomorrow.

Can you give us more information about what exactly is different from the online photos? The colors? Relief?

Sorry for this.
I had this feeling, that the coin isn't outstanding as 2013 O Canada 1/2oz Maple Leafs, when I saw the rendered pictures, and decided not to buy. From this series bought "The Grizzle" and "The Goose"

@ Silveriod that disappointing to hear! I was hoping it would be a great coin. I haven't bought any of the series. I'm very disappointed they concluded the birds of Canada series, there's so many outstanding birds not done!

It's not mine.

Solidifier bought it......I though to get it (this coin), when the sub started in 2014, but when saw the pictures - preferred not to rush. I think, it's not "alive" enough.
