Quote:Well, we know who bought all the coins: this guy has more than 10 of them. http://www.ebay.ca/itm/50-2016-5oz-...AOSwn9lXKZTc Can people pick which one they get? Seeing 10 samples side by side I have to say the variation is quite large.. I think 1 or 2 of them look okay, the other look disfigured, more like starfish than maple leaf... |

There was a no limit order when I purchased two of them from my rep.

The few that the Shopping Channel had were sold out last night/early this morning even before they got to air.

Very fast sellout!
Looks like Gatewest is the only one left with "low stock." They raised the price another $10 to $669.95.

Available at Canada Post at issue price. They finally cleared up the glitch where you put the coin into the cart but can't checkout.
So those that want it at issue, get it now. Why pay $669 at Gatewest when you can get it for $549.

Target marketing has always held a certain fascination for me. Initially I wouldn't have expected this one to have sold out so quickly but, thinking about it, it's design falls within at least three distinct collector groups.
That is NCLT collectors of:
- Murano Glass, or
- Maple Leaves, or
- 5 oz coins

I received my Maple Leaf Murano coins today and I have to say that I was pleasantly surprized!
They look way better in hand then pictures I have seen.

@onecad
Beautiful display! I have all the coins as well; however, the large round one under the rectangle maple leaf is from what year? I cannot see it too well. Nice and large!
Thank you for sharing.

Great display, onecad!
and good theme to start with...
Just pay attention - currently it more "Canadian Flag" than "Maple Leaf", or you have some other Maples, not on this display?

Your display is really attractive! Thanks for sharing, I always appreciated pics to demonstrate how others display collections, good for inspiration. Maybe another in six months, time lapse? If RCM continues pumping out maple leafs, you may need a larger display stand quite soon LOL! |

@ Silveroid , You're right, initially I wanted to collected Canadian flag coins but added the other Maple leaf coins that had red maple leafs. Yes, I have other maple leaf coins on other shelfs in the display case.
@ New1954, it's a 2005 silver dollar, 40th anniversary of the flag.
@ wildflowerAb, indeed, I'll need another display case.
Thank-you for the feedback :)
