Thanks BiBo! Great choose of composition for the photo! The coins looks good. And RCM improved service - from 4-th or 5-th 20 for 20 coin sends the card for each coin. But why they didn't think to distribute like the dealers do - each coin comes on the card and the card is sealed individually and not open. This is much more accurate, and better as a gift for someone.

@ Silverroid,
I think they did that for the last 4 coins. The Canoe, The Polar Bear, The Queen and Farewell to the Penny. As I received them placed in the sealed plastic. Just wonder why this one don't come with the plastic cover.

To BiBo:
This is interesting. I always received them 3 in one card + 2 empty cards (without any external plastic cover).
But seen at the dealer store all cards (with the coin inside) protected by external plastic seal.
Bought from the dealer "Farewell to the Penny" for a gift sealed - its really "different story"

Oh man, Then I think this time they just for got to put them in the clear plastic cover for me. What's wrong the the Mint packaging department? might be people just lazy, skip work sometimes.
I will go to my dealer and ask him for some plastic covers then.

I also received mine today in the same manner as Silveroid. There is not any die clashes on mine this time.

the coins that are ordered through the mint site to not come wrapped in plastic. If you purchased from the post office they come in the plastic sealed bag.

For me it was always like Silverwolf said - no plastic wrap was sent from the Mint. And every time the coins came exactly like on the pictures, that were posted by BiBo.
So the "Polar Bear", "Reindeer" and "Last Penny" coins, that I bought as the gifts - from the PO or Colonial Acres.

Just to be clear, we are talking about the plastic wrap outside the C.O.A card right?
The one I've got from the mint never comes with that outter plastic wrap around the C.O.A card. The only time that I got those is either from Canada Post or Mint Boutique.
For those that wants to see the hockey coin, look in the other forum.
