Hello,
It has been a while I was wondering if it is possible to go into the mint's Archive. Through google I am able to find a few coins if I know more or less their name, but I was hoping there is a way to browse through the archives.
Thanks

Thanks :) But they are still not all there. No Swarovski snowflake coins for example.

Sorry to bump this thread. I have the 2004 Majestic Moose coin/stamp set and I have no idea what it originally sold for. Is there any way to find out? Thanks.

My notes indicate that I paid $79.95 for the Majestic Moose coin and stamp set. I can't say for sure that was original list, as I purchased it from a dealer - when they were first released... but likely it was.

Thanks guys. I think the coin by itself was sold for $39.95
The original set was somewhere around $129. Dealers sell it between $150 and $250 now but the mint doesn't have the original listing. Or if they do, it's hidden somewhere.

The $129 - depends when exactly you bought it. This is very expensive for the Mint issue price in 2004. Less popular, but not less beautiful sets (my favorite - "The Walrus") sells now for $50-$60. |

As per my above post, the Moose Coin & Stamp
set sold originally for $39.95 including the wooden display case, stamp, coin & booklet.

 Yup, issue price was indeed $39.95. I had ordered 2 from a dealer but they retroactively limited me to one, and then raised their website price to 99.95 - I remember it well because I stopped buying from them for several years after that. lol I also bought 2 directly from the mint for $39.95. Just a side note: there are some similar sets that were put together but a third party (not the mint) that are very similar. They use the same wooden case, some stamps and 2012 Wildlife SML bullion moose. They were generally sold for about $90. Real one from 2004 http://www.cdncoin.com/product-p/623932230941.htmImitation from 2012 http://www.cdncoin.com/product-p/20130830014.htmEdited by CC-Ottawa

Interesting issue. I wouldn't buy, but still...not bad at all. Just the 3-rd party set includes less quality BU coin, unlike the Proof in the original set. Oh, and of cause the mintage differences. (of the coin). |
