Thats why I was putting "mintage". I've got to say, Limiting the box to 7000 units is a great idea but I don't think using the term "mintage" applies. I've decided to spend the $30, and take a stab at this box. It may be the only thing that helps sell these super high mintage coins in the future if I decide to sell.

Didn't notice the separate thread dealing with the cases.

While we speaking about possible hot stuff (like ordering many boxes with limited mintage of 7000), people started to load quantities famous Odin coin from Perth Mint. The problem is only....this is 5-th or 6-th Odin appearance on the coin, so interesting - who still buying this stuff? Majority of people heard word "Odin" first time in the life, and probably first time understood that "Norse Gods" do not related to North US or Canada...

^ yes there are lots of Norse gods coin out already but they all have different design and released by different mint. I personally prefer the Choice Mint Odin the most but most people don't know Choice Mint? Perth Mint have its own clienteles that may not be aware of other mints releases of Odin or Norse God releases. Mintage of 2K is not too bad and I personally would prefer a mintage of 1.5k. But in any case, I think it will be sold out. Will it be as hot as God of Olympus and Goddess of Olympus? I doubt it but again, the relative small Mintage help save it from being a dud.

I agree Lostwords. Each coin not bad, but theme already "overkill". So the total mintage for "Odin" coins already not so low. Together with this agree, will be sold-out. Mostly re-sellers, or people that decided to collect the Perth Mint theme so they have Ancient Gods and Godess and now will move to Norse Gods.

The Landscape Illusion 5 coin series, the 1st released this month, the Mountain Goat.... I notice photos of the future 4 on CCandC website. Seems that's something new by RCM, leaving it to the public to judge in advance if we're interested in a subscription by actually knowing what it is we're signing up for.

Together with full stuff of non-RCM coins (like coins for investment from Coin Invest Trust), The Coin Shoppe managed to secure for reasonable price the: ECLIPSE OF THE SUN: MAPLE LEAF - 2016 1 oz Canadian Maple Leaf Silver Coin - Ruthenium Finish and Rose GoldProduction: 888 coins all over the world only Price: USD 82.82 only (how soon it will be CAD 200 - 300?) Special Features: Black Ruthenium and Rose GoldMintage: 888 Material: Pure Silver (99.99% pure) Weight: 1 oz Diameter: 38 mm Scope of Delivery: Luxury Wooden BoxCertificate: YesFace Value: $5.00 URL: http://www.thecoinshoppe.ca/eclipse...d-rose-gold/Added: **Have you seen coin with the Queen same effigy on both sides? Probably for the double-Royalists **Mongolian Falcon coin looks not bad. But CAD 184 for 1oz silver with Crystals? Too much. Even 2012 Hedgehog significantly dropped in price, doubtful that people continue buying them for full price....Under the CAD 100 - yes.
