@YesOrNo Thank you for the stunning photos. All subs are sold out now, including The Shopping Channel. Only Gatewest still has the single coin available at issue price. However, they lowered the points to 2.8% from 7%. Prices are $194.95 on ebay now. I bought only the single, and now regret not buying the set. The Shopping Channel had five left earlier today. Then "poof" they were gone. Quote:I have the UHR Lynx coin and it literally 'stuck' among other, more traditional RCM coins. Having mini set / series will be more reasonable. I have the same lonely coin. This is what encouraged me to buy the set, but I was too late.

I received my subscription box for the animal head set on Friday The box is top quality, very heavy duty. Same material as 1 oz coins. The box looks great in holding all three coins.

I'm sure u can at least buy the other 2 as singles if you wanted to looney...According to the CP tracking my wolf should be here Tommorow or Tuesday...I'm glad I ordered one...
also broke down and ordered the " pride of 2 nations" coin set from the US mint instead of getting the 2019 Canadian cored silver coin set....the US mint still has some left....HUGE mintage but awesome looking coins if u are into the maples and silver eagles...

Yes, I will buy the singles to complete the set.

I bought the Canadian set. Very nice. Just noticed that Colonial Acres has two of the American sets available for $249.00 https://www.colonialacres.com/produ...1-ap3256.htm

Ohhhh...boo hoo. Go ahead. Twist the knife in a little deeper now that I can't get a set... lol MoneyPenney, your coin absolutely great. The box, imo, reaches only "good" quality. But yes, it looks as durable. The top quality will be "Masks" / "Penny set" boxes. This one in the middle. At the bottom - plastic case or cardboard box. @Looney: don't be disappointing, unless you planned on some re-sells, for your own collection just get the rest 2 singles. May I disagree a bit?  Added: Who can explain in 2 lines, please, the value of the Canada / US 2-coin bullion set? Isn't it the same idea as F15 set, with standard overpriced bullion coins? The SML slighly different, but there are many others slightly different SMLs.....

@Silveroid: There are lots of ASE collectors in the US who desire complete sets. The Pride set has an ASE that can only be purchased in it, hence the demand (at least in the US). I would think the same reasoning applies to Canada and the SML. No?

I would think the same reasoning applies to Canada and the SML. No? I understand, giving a fact, that there are no much varieties of ASE. SMLs there are too many (and very nice designs of fractional sets also added to this variety).

Was hesitant at first, but then this set got me excited. I look forward to the Bear in October.

The Bear is absolutely gorgeous. The Wolf is cool, but in hand, the Bear is outstanding. Also, I had to buy the entire set as singles, and the seller that I bought the Wolf from was cool enough to send the three coin clamshell. These coins will be the last coins that I ever sell. They're very cool.

@jetboy
I agree. the BEAR coin is way more spectacular than the Wolf head. I believe it is the most outstanding of the three.
