Canada 150 Puzzle Coin

I can't really tell from the mint website but does anyone know how this 'puzzle' is encapsulated? Is it all inside one large capsule or is each piece separately encapsulated? If the former, there really is no 'puzzle' to assemble unless you're handling unprotected silver. If the later, the look will be greatly altered.

Also, given that 13 of the pieces are the same shape, could one reorganize the province 'incorrectly' (at least as compared to the proper design of the Centennial Flame?

Finally, the map idea is cool (someone mentioned it on here years ago too) but the cost and complexities of producing it would be astronomical. You've have to expect to pay many thousands for such a piece so I doubt it would ever happen; at least not from the RCM.

Thanks. Look forward to see how that works in a photo. All the rendering seem to show the pieces fitting snuggly against each other. Gaps might look odd. What holds it all together? Just the packaging in the box? That presents a problem with displaying in a floating frame or wall mount..

But a least you can all put your favourite province on top.

I would not call 800 low mintage, when coins in the same price range are at 500 mintage. Like the Kilo coins.

The only reason they sold out so quick it was a commissioned coin.

You can still get at CC&C - 2 per customer.

It sold out at 9:30AM the first day when it was only available to MC Prestige.

Reps must all be on vacation of late

Hmmm...I really like this one and the easy pays makes it really tempting.
