I agree with Lostwords. One week ago I thought, that I'll buy additional 1914 gold coin ($1000), but now the new release came out...and what to do - I like new NCLT more then old coin, so I need to weight, what to buy. Except this, they issued new 1oz subscription, and I find it pretty similar to 1/2oz subscription, that I ordered (but didn't get even 1st coin)... So, in order to collect, but not spend all the available money, need to decide - should I cancel the 1/2oz and when to do it, or should I stop thinking about 1914 $10 gold... Didn't sell single coin and actually have nothing to sell except of couple "milk" spotted bullion duplicates, or "taken-out-of-set" duplicates for 2004 Arctic Fox and 2005 Canada Lynx Added: As I told previously - with all these monthly releases RCM makes very tough to collect all what I want.

I think that there are two camps. Some folks ordered the subscription only to get three coins and a box before cancelling. Not exactly in the spirit of the series but I'm sure the mint is not losing any money by deleting three clamshells and adding a wooden box.
However, the second group, me included, are now faced with the option of a second O Canada set. I'm not sure I want two subscriptions and I prefer 1 oz coins so I will probably cancel the 1/2oz set. If I do, should I do it now or wait to get the box (which after 120$ for three coins, I have likely paid for)? The answer for me is to spend another 80 bucks to get two more coins and the box. I would use the box to display other 34mm coins.
That said, if the next two coins are really nice, maybe I'll keep both subscriptions. Gonna have to get a paper route to pay for all these coins.

I am thinking of cancelling all together. Haven't even gotten the first coin in the 1/2 oz yet. Too many coins, can't decide.

When I try to view the larger image of the 1oz 25th anniversary of the silver maple leaf I get no picture. Plus when I move my mouse down it lifts up a hidden bar that says 1 of 0 and to the left writing that reads "Silver Dinosaur Coin Series" and written 3 times in a row "Celebrating the 400th"
Does anyone else see that or is it Chrome messing with me?

Not showing any new released coins, just showing issues with site, hope that is okay. If not I will take down.  |

I'm using Chrome and I'm not having a problem viewing the full screen on the coin.

Got 3 dinos and 1 roll. Last year I would have bought them all, except for the expensive platinum and gold coins. I'm cured  |

@canadian_coins
Same as I got. I'm having to tow the line a bit ;)
@coin_games
I'm using Firefox. Image was slow to load, but eventually made it.
I like the effigy of the Queen that they used on this coin. I think it's an older portrait.

If you like O Canada set and already ordered 1/2oz series, no need to cancel it, IMO.
The new 5 1oz series is rather an O Canada ANIMAL series than an O Canada acturally.
