Bank Of Canada 1912-14 Gold Coin Special RCM Release

The cancellation button doesn't work well. I talked to a RCM rep on time before. He said if you want to cancel some orders, you'd better call them, because they seldom handle the cancellation from on-line.

Interested to see comments on darryl's question.

done and done hahahaha. Plus nicer box :P

For all of the people on this forum thread who have repeatedly stated that they don't think these coins will ever be more than bullion value (which I don't necessarily believe but has been a popular opinion in this discussion), the extra investment in the premium coins is not worth it. Regardless of what happens with the price of these coins, from my perspective, the hand selected coins are a safe investment as they have about $830 worth of gold in them. If the price of gold continues to climb over the years, it will be easy to recoup your cost if you ever have to since the premium above gold value is much smaller on the hand selected coins. I personally went with hand-selected since I'm a bit averse to risk and felt safer with the hand-selected coins regardless of what happens to the value of these coins. The gold will always be in them!

As I noted in the spreadsheet, the red numbers are estimates. Call it an educated guess. All we know is that some of each year were released and that the total for the 3 years is 291. Based on the distribution of $10 coins, I estimated how many of the $5 were likely released.

Hopefully we get a firm number as well as firm numbers on the the coins sent to the melting pot.

You may also be confusing the 1912 $5 and $10. There were $5 premium released but there were no individual $10 premium released.

The numbers I was given for the $5.00 Premium coins were:

- 1912: 62
- 1913: 45
- 1914: 121

A total of 228 -- still not the "291" listed in the RCM press release, but at least a bit closer number.

@Marty: Was your "26" a typo in your post, or were you really told "26" by the RCM rep?

No error she told me 26 for the 1912,and I told
her the numbers do not match,she told me that's what she had on her sheet.
I bought the 1914$5 HS.

I tend to believe that the premium sets are even better quality than the HS premium coins. Otherwise, you have to believe that the 1912 $10 is worth almost 6 grand.

3x875 + 2x1750 = 6125

12000 - 6125 = 5875 for one coin?

I think that the 140 are the best of the best and if I bought the set, I'd expect them to be better than HS premium individual coins. Could be dreaming. Maybe it's just a really nice box driving the 12k price.
