Again, if you just want the loonie you can pick one up from asyn for about $22-23 + tax. They've been listing one a day for weeks now. I got the set from the RCM myself when it first came out.

I collect the specimen sets. I love seeing the different loonies and twoonies.. It's a break from the normal. Asyn is an ebay seller, he has the single coin listings with the mint green background

Ok thanks...ummm why would they sell just the loonie, not that I am complaining ,but what do they do with the rest of the set? Or are they selling each coin and trying to make more money that way? Tried to bid on 2 but was out bid by 3***0( 40) who is auto bidding , he is winning all 3 coins...interesting either he really wants all 3 or is inflating the prices  Seller has lots of neg feedback, maybe I will just buy the set from the mint .

@Northerncoins, just an FYI, last year's 'Last Penny Set' - just the pennies (99.99%silver) were selling near $100 from broken sets. This isn't new.

I guess so, just have not thought too much about spiting up sets like that , always thought they would be worth more as a set but I guess not .
Its $57.44 CAD a with taxes and I have free shipping at the mint, would be more with shipping...not sure I want it that badly lol.

And he sells just the coin, no box, not COA.

Lots of sniping on asyn's listings. Better to check the completed listings than the existing bids to get a reasonable price range. The last 4 have sold for $26-28. The ones before that were going for $21-23 for a while. Seller has lots of feedback period. :-) There are a few other threads on that subject in this forum already :-). My experience has been that if you are careful and patient and not worried about cases & COAs you can pick up some good deals on the NCLT side. If you buy into their grading on the circulation side you WILL overpay. If you check all the listings sorted by newly listed then you'll see the entire set as individual coins. My best deal so far on this sort of thing is getting all the coins from the 2012 regular proof set (silver dollar, nickel coins and copper penny) for $66 including tax (and free shipping) compared to the issue price of $112.95 including tax (and free shipping) from the RCM.

Yes, you do see the same bidders showing up. Some bid on all the silver dimes, some on all the silver dollars etc.

I guess that guy (3**0) is trying to get it for 20$-22$ max, that might be why he is bidding on all of them.

I got one for @ $23. The good thing about buying from asyn is that he only charges me 5% tax now. Used to be 12

asyn is a good choice when you need only the coin, be it from a set, or a commemorative. All the new coins are in great condition and you pay significantly less
