I just purchased a coin that I have been chasing since it was issued and sold out quickly in 2000 (the Bluenose trnasportation) and we've had the 2011 20 for 20 coins sell out in roughly a month. This got me curious to see if there is a sell out speed record. Just for fun, does anyone know which RCM coin or set with a mintage of at least 4k has sold out the quickest over the years? |

I wonder how fast the 2012 Venetian Glass Coin will sell?

Venetian Glass Ladybug Coin (I presume there will be a new Venetian Glass coin this year, unless the Mint was embarrassed by it).

Embarrassed? That thing sold out like hot cakes. I wouldn't call that an embarassment!
I thought the 2011 100th anniversary of the 1911 dollar proof set sold out rather quick.

I believe the lady bug set the record for sales of 5000 units.

Also holds record for being one of the ugliest coins.

the case of the pimpled glass coin is about to be reopened. The next one should be a black bug of some sort, a pimple coin followed by a mole :P
