I bought the first one on a whim. Never thinking that a coin with glass on it would appreciate beyond an interesting oddity. It will be nice to see this set completed - would have been nicer if the mint offered an attractive display box for all of them.

RCM did offer cases for Venetian Glass Insect Coins.

But too bad only available on Gold Coins and not on Silver Coins.

Grab image on google.

I assume, that the 6-coin box for "Tribute to Nickel" could be used for Glass Creatures series (5 creatures + Snowmen).

The slots will be suitable for 40mm RCM coins with standard capsule, hence will be good for 38mm coins with capsule with thick edges (38mm glass coins with non standard capsule).

My assumption is due to possibility of Masks coins (36mm thick capsule) to fit the 38mm standard RCM slot.

Silveroid, You may run into a clearance issue using that case with the capsules having a greater depth on the glass coins.

Very good point, Gatewest.
I store the UHR coin (Lynx) in the O Canada box and it fits perfectly.
But you correct, the Glass coins bit higher.

CoinCanuck94 and anyone else that need the Bumble Bee coin: I have extra can list on here at 'my-cost' price. If anyone interested (PM me to let me know since I don't check this section that often), I will list it on the B/S/T section.

Might be he just have bought all of them in the CA sale for $1400+ and now tries to get quick 10K?

exactly what we saw today:
when you buy such stuff it expensive, when you keep it - it cool and rare, but when you try to sell - no demand.

In the body of the listing - way below the buyers look, he mentions, that will accept the offers. Probably trying by this to sell it privately.
But again, nothing special in this lot, since all the coins available as singles to find.
