Congrats for the coins, guys! At the end, it will be the stunning collection of all commemorative Silver dollars. But see the RCM failure point: The high level MC member, innocent collector, spent $5000+ and then needed to fight and to worry about single coin to get for issue price. Feels happy that RCM thrown the coin, after some calls and clarifications with the rep. While re-seller, could spend $0 with RCM, will buy unlimited amount of coins with premium (preferable at the first pre-sales) and in two clicks will resell each of them for twice a price. Feels like a king with this series in collection and extra money aside  |

That is very impressive. I need to get some of those 1876-1976 silver dollars to go with my coin.

Onecad, your unique display and the use of a floating frame is absolutely sensational! Follows my theory, creativity in display is equally important to collecting NCLT if one is to fully enjoy the hobby.

Got it yesterday. Very beautiful coin but it's smaller than last years. Kind of weird no?

Have you looked at the specifications on each COA? Is one slightly thicker than the other? |

The inconsistency is definitely disappointing.
Per the Mint's website, the Library of Parliament is 4mm smaller in diameter than the Voyageur.
1st is 54mm and 62.67grams
2nd is 50mm and 62.69grams
They don't cite thickness measurements but obviously the second coin must be thicker.

I received my coin today and its pretty nice looking. The gold detailing is outstanding
Too bad it is not the same size as the Voyageur coin because when you put it side by side you can see the difference.
