Thanks Hawk!
I wasn't paying much attention lately but silver is passed 47 USD! That means we have close to $12 in silver in the coin. How high will it go?

but silver is passed 47 USD The still rising price of silver has forced the German Government on April 13, 2011 to change the German "10 Euros for a 10 Euro Silver NCLT coin" program. Yes, for many, many years, Germany had a NCLT program -- first 5 DM coins, then 10 DM coins, since 2002 the 10 Euro coins -- where "silver content value" was BELOW the face value of the coin. Which, by the by, makes the uproar here in the CCF community about the Canadian "$20 for $20" program actually quite amusing for me. But, of course, the German government still wants to make many from coin collectors. So the German 10 Euro coins program will be changed. One will still be able to get German 10 Euros NCLT coins for 10 Euros, HOWEVER, they will be made from cupro-nickel. And additionally, the issues will also be available in silver 625/copper 375 for metal value plus 10 Euros surcharge plus taxes. Until last year, the German 10 Euro coins had silver 925. The silver price forced them to cut the silver content to 625. P.S.: Sorry, if this posting is considered to be a bit off topic... Edited by redlock

If you can get it for $35 USD, that's about what you'll pay in CDN, with the us dollar being garbage.

Price has dropped to about $28 US.
Still not bad, considering silver has levelled off.

After checking out the weight & size of the coin, It isn't for me. I can find better coins to spend my 20 bucks on.  |

Sorry to resurrect such an old thread but I just noticed that the 2011 RCM annual report show sales of 244,000 of this coin. Odd since they set the original mintage at 200k. From the annual report: Maple Leaf $20 Fine Silver Coin (2011) 244,000 Product page: http://www.mint.ca/store/product/pr...=prod1040001Still, I think this was one of the best 20 for 20 designs and it seems doing ok in the secondary market. |

Its definitely one of the nicest coins I've bought in the last few years. I really like the fact that I bought the 10 I was allowed, Gave one to each of my kids and put some away but I opened one up and it sits on my desk in front of me and my grandson and I play with it. Never to early to teach them the beauty of coins  |
