SilverDon Pillar of the Community Canada 2360 Posts	Posted 03/02/2018 8:43 pm The lack of detail in the frosted cameo on the obverse is quite flat as compared to the original. The face details are more dramatic in the original. I am not sure why 1943 is significant. Same design from 1937 to 1952 with King George VI. Report this Post to the Staff

canadian_coins Pillar of the Community United States 2408 Posts	Posted 03/02/2018 11:37 pm The original is far better. The king's effigy looks really odd on the new coin. No relief, frosty and a coin that looks like a fake IMO. Perhaps RCM's computerized rendition doesn't help. Hey - here's an idea. Maybe the RCM could release images of ACTUAL coins to Master Club members - secret / private pictures that nobody else could see? And I would share back to the community until I'm shut down.

While I agree with you, it doesn't look like there is much of a supply other than a few on ebay for $100 more than the sticker price. Report this Post to the Staff
aghawk Valued Member Canada 343 Posts	Posted 03/05/2018 1:30 pm Must agree - original design is much better looking. Just like the original '67 Alex Colville designs looked better than the re-rendered designs in 2017. Report this Post to the Staff

Silveroid Pillar of the Community Canada 6768 Posts	Posted 03/07/2018 4:41 pm Member of the other forum found, that now the Talisman as well selling these Exclusive MC 50-cent coins... I am sure, the dealers not ask for MC membership ID and do not check it for validity. Is it direct lie, RCM use "duality" in the item description: "We did strike it solely for MC Members, and do distribute to them only, but the dealers, who bought the coin from us, will sell it to everyone" Report this Post to the Staff
