SPP-Ottawa, that is very good insight re the Ottawa Coin Club. And don't worry, we wouldn't be using this venue to try and sell coins. Believe it or not, we're not always trying to sell. We're very interested in hearing from our customers and collectors. We do alot of research before we ever produce a coin. And I mean alot! Would understanding the research that goes into whether or not a coin gets produced be interesting? Totally agree that the technical side of things would be a hot topic for the crowd at the coin club. Really hoping we can make it happen for you. I'm pushing for it!

Too bad we missed last month's session. I'm sure it was fantastic and enlightening and all that good stuff! I noticed that the topic is coin photography. And I will see if someone might be able to attend. Taking photos of coins is a real challenge. I know we are always looking at ways to really show the detail and definition of our coins on our website. Takes a real specialist to do it right. The glare of the silver and gold are just one challenge with regards to lighting. I wonder if any of our coin photographers might already be going? I will pass this info along...

Thanks so much!

Shame you could not have gone to last month's meeting - I was the speaker and my topic was "The Geology of Canadian Coins"...


... or not SPP :-) sounds as little geaky for the newly initiated :-) [now if you wanted to write an article for the CNJ - this would be a great topic (let me know)]

Having representatives of the RCM attend coin clubs would be a great idea! I know for a fact that the clubs I am involved in in the Toronto area would love to host a Mint rep.
