Does Mint plan to do "Big Coins" for 25-Anniversary of the 1992 Provincial Quarters? (2017 - 1992)
Or at least 1-oz versions of them...

I think will not be colourized 1967-2017 Big Coins set - even without it, too much will be issued

Mintage greatly affects normal 1oz. NCLT, us collectors are just burned out with these endless offerings


Yes I agree, the never ending lure of lower mintage/increased varieties can eventually lead to buyer burnout.

Aside from a hoarder situation, everyone has personal limits on how many and how much expense can be justified in accumulating a coin collection that still retains any sense of purpose and satisfaction. Without a heavy amount of personal discipline, it's very easy to hit that limit in a remarkably short period of time.

The only dealer still selling the single goose coin is Gatewest Coins at $599.99. The Coin Shoppe has sold out at $639. Canada Post has finally taken the coin off their website. CP is likely oversold as someone on the other forum said they only had 50 coins.

The Shopping Channel still have the subscription at $559 issue price.

Canadian Coin and Currency also has the subscription at $559 and the single at $999.

Obviously this would have to be a two part series and a little too much of an investment for most collectors. Still there will be some interested for sure.

Perhaps a set of Newfoundland coinage would be more exciting. A 5 ounce Victoria would be really cool not to mention the intricate reverse designs!

What would prevent one from subscribing to the CC & C set and cancel after the first coin?

If you read the terms and conditions on CC&C website it says that the whole set has to be returned in order to get a refund .

Less than month, it (chase after 2017 Goose SD) probably will be the history, and all this stuff with the Subscription, OGP and etc

Since in November, more rare, 2oz Silver coin will come (will it be 1936-2016?)
Remember raise of the 2015 Voyageur coin? Please be ready to hunt and grab the new one

A familiar pattern isn't it? A lot of talk, a lot of hype, interest wanes, prices plummet.

You can see it with the RCM Star Trek Delta. More listings and more people undercutting each other. One sold for $1585 yesterday.

Yes, the discussion about Delta on other forum immediately triggered the parallel.
That's what I strongly dislike in these RCM endless offerings, while the coins (some) not bad at all.

Both the 1935 and 1936 silver dollar feature the Voyageur and effigy of King George V and the only difference is a slight modification of the inscription.

Many collectors of silver dollars often are not interested in duplicates so I'd wonder that duplicate commemorate SDs would hold any greater appeal?

You right, Wildflower about 1936 SD

But for me it still tough to guess theme for this 2oz series, so my assumption was the 80-Anniversary of the 1936.
It will be very stupid idea, if mint will offer now 2oz of the 1967-2017 SD

I don't think you can compare cross collectable coins to regular NCLT. Star Trek, superman, whatever it may be draw in collectors of themes, not necessarily numis. Especially the delta. There are lots of Trekkies that are after it... Not a 1948 silver dollar.

I see TSC has begun shipping. I wonder how this whole thing will turn out after ordering the coin that wasn't a sub until after the transaction (Item Number:653-918)? Order status shows "Shipped Complete"
Anyone who ordered the current sub (item number:653-933) if shipped, does it show the order is complete or does it show something about more to come later?

My order on 653-918 showed shipped yesterday and shall arrival next Friday.

I just checked again on The Shopping Channel.

653-918 is removed from TSC's website, which did not mentioned on buying all 6 coins as a set.

TSC replaced 653-918 with 653-933, which mentions buying 6 coins with 60 day auto delivery on rest of 5 coins
https://www.theshoppiNGChannel.com/...0,E:12086154

It might be a loophole
653-918 = Single
653-933 = 6 Coin Set

No loophole.

I called on Wednesday morning and ask that if it is indeed a six coin subscription and they informed me that it was. TSC did not sell any individual singles on this big coin series.

In transit. Getting mine this morning. Can't wait to see it in hand.
