Really like the cherry blossom. But why can't the mint just have made it a 1 oz coin?
Rest in Peace

Do we all get the same video? What letter does your reps first name start with?


I got a video from my rep, dialogue pretty much the same,... just a different mug in on the screen.

Why? What's wrong with some variety?

Just curious what MC level are you to get to see the vidoes?


I could be wrong, but I'm assuming the videos are available to all clients / customers of particular reps? Personally, I'm at one of the higher ends of the MC program, but I believe a few of my colleagues in lower levels have also received videos.

My RCM rep was the one who produced the video shared by CC-Ottawa. I personally really enjoyed the last couple of videos received - it has been much easier to make an "informed" purchasing decision with the videos. My rep's initials are DE.

I believe the RCM is test-piloting a program wherein reps are able to personally present the coins by video. Smart move... this allows customers to put "a face to a name" while presenting a more personalize sales approach / experience.

Despite the release hiccups / learning curve with these videos, I sincerely hope the RCM continues down this path!

Nothing is wrong with variety. I just feel if I'm paying $70 for a coin it should be at least an oz.

RCM 1 oz with no special technology is around $99.95. RCM 1 oz with some kind of technology usually goes for $149.95 or more. 1/2 oz is usually around $50 range.

I never heard about the release of a collector case for the $20 for $20 series but just saw it listed on the RCM website.

No..no way.
If you had them - yes, probably better to get the case, but to buy the coins back and the case, cause you actually liked the case ?

Except this:
Isn't it too heavy and bulky to contain 20 small 1/4oz silver coins? It looks bigger than the F15 one...
Good, that RCM distributes it, nice price, but the item is oversized.

Too bad the case wasn't free to those that have bought all the coins in the series.

Remember "Allegory" coins?
When one member here liked them and bought all three in separate, while RCM 3 months after offered them in the wooden box..

Mts,
$30 for the box is a fair price I suppose but free is better. What can I say?.... I'm cheap.
