Quote: Rose is nice, but history says you will be able to pick this up for less than issue within a year.
Right, but with the correction. History tells, that although ability to pick up for reduced price, you will not be interested in this coin after half a year. There is just no reason to buy it (despite people like to buy whatever is cheap). If you do not need it now - so it just 1/4oz Silver or $3 face value coin, nothing else.
Maybe not everyone knows of the significance of this coin and the connection to Queen Elizabeth and the popular pink rose variety named in her honour? Other than perhaps filling a spot in a $3 collection, it's most likely designed with Mother's Day in mind or an appropriate gift for someone who likes roses.
The theme of the Roses has a cross-reference with the "Alice in the Wonderland", where the scene of the painting roses in red described, cause this is the way the Queen of Hearts likes them.
I ordered from Canada post on the 20th of April still no coin do they take time to send it to you.I am in Ontario. Anyone else order and not receive the coin yet.
For those of you intending to give this coin as a Mothers Day gift, this must really be disappointing. That RCM suddenly chose to release it mid-April without stock in hand, it gave the false impression there'd be adequate time to receive it by early May. But it appears it was actually a May release that was advertised early. I also ordered one from CC&C around that date, I notice it was just shipped yesterday.
I spoke with my rep about a week ago, and asked if it would be delivered on time for Mother's day - he said "Not likely". So, I am not getting my hopes up.
I suppose one could always print out a photo with a "Coming Soon" type of banner and still present that as a Mother's Day gift in whatever way was originally intended.
Mothers are excellent in knowing that even the best of plans don't always turn out as intended.
