"Kind of interesting what Mike paid for this coin from the dealer, if he doesn't mind sharing."
The dealer I went to was very honest. I paid issue price. I'd also like to note I am a MC Platinum club member that didn't get the opportunity to buy directly from the mint and got very lucky finding one at a dealer.
I also called CDNcoin and they had no idea of what the coin was.
Maybe you guys can get lucky and call around and find one.

You right about indicator, Wildflower. But there is a case, while impressed buy high resell value, NCLT collector may decide to list it for sale, cause design vice he/she has 2010 SD, in order get nice amount to spend on for future NCLT purchase, something more unique.

There is nothing worse for a company to offer a rewards program to your best customers and have many of your members unable to purchase the special item, then to have dealers offer it at 3 to 4 times issue. So simple to for see and just easy marketing solution, you are basically turning off your best customers. You create a tier system of mc and chance to order, just follow it

 That's right. By definition / default "MC exclusive" item should go to these specific tiered MC, and not to any other people and places. Otherwise this stuff just put under the risk all MC program, cause leave the loyal members without any significant benefit. Imagine you are frequent flyer in the First Class, and every time you have the neightbour that came from economy some way, while your friend, who bought the 1-st class ticket, but in the registration was refused due to overbooking.

Yes, would certainly be a possibility as well. But if this coin is to become a muchly sought after item and considering the limited mintage, for the original purchase price of $189.95, a MC member would be far better off hanging on to it in order to offset the depreciation of their other RCM coins/sets. Immediate early sales demonstrate the owner believes that future values will decrease which is exactly why RCM has lost many of its longterm customers who are interested in collecting NCLT as opposed to churning it. So my curiosity wonders if this one will be different.

Question: Does anyone recall if RCM has ever amended/increased the mintage of NCLT from what was originally announced?

I am really surprised as to how few of these have been listed on ebay. Seems as if everyone wants to hold on to this one for dear life. That in itself will drive the price of the coin higher.

It should be noted not a single coin has been sold at $800. When I first found the Coin Shoppe listing it was at $372. At that time they had 3 sold. For what price I don't know; could be lower than $372. The one coin that is left, has been jacked up several times since with no buyers at $800.
There is also another seller, Angus Coins selling it for $800.
These two sellers are testing the market. I doubt any will sell for $800 right now as potential buyers are looking for a lower price.

Most of the 2000 mc members doesn't need to sell a coin like this, unless the price of this coin goes insane, tomorrow or so most of us will receive it and depending how it looks in hand. Also I do not remember the RCM ever increasing an announced mintage.

I think, many people wait for market response to high BINs. If this is the price, more will follow. Yeah, do not remember, when RCM increased the mintage, that has been announced, but recall recent 5oz Big Coins series, while the first announcement from the Rep didn't say a thing about mintage (1500), but mentioned only 500 sets.

Any other Silver MC having trouble with accessing the coins page to read reviews? It keeps telling me to sign in this just keeps repeating. Even while I'm signed in. I wanted to read the reviews. Plus I keep getting their survey requests. It's very frustrating.
