I received my complete order today. The set of six plus two extra 1914 $5. They all look amazing, much nicer than I expected! None of the 8 would grade under MS62!! The two nicest are 1913 $10 and 1913 $5. Both would easily grade MS63! I also believe all 3 1914 $5 would grade MS63! The mint has done a tremendous job with these!!

Received exactly what Canada Gold receive. I would grade the coins anywhere from au-58 to MS-62. Really wonder if MS-63 could be achieved.

my 3 1914 $5 gold hand select. I think they are decent. ms-60 to ms-62 in my opinion. the other gold coins are about the same quality. some more baggy especially the 1912. Waiting for another 3 1914 $5 gold

Saw a premium 1914 $5 today. Less bag marks and relief is much more pronounced. Very very nice!

Received my 1913 $5 coin today. It was smaller than what I expected, only the size of a nickel.

Otherwise, the coin is nice, except for some minor edge wear on the coin.

Like all the other coins I have seen on this forum, the front of the coin looks nicer than the back with the King on it. Anyone know why the back looks worst than the front?

the kings face is the highest point in the coin as thus will incur most of the bag marks, while the tail or coat of arms is lower design and probalbly looks better on all examples along with a few rim dims. what really be interesting is what the premium hand select and the super best of the best 140 sets looks like?

So my question for all the experts here:

Would you consider these coins to be fully circulated coins that made their way back to the bank?

Or are these coins that were never circulated, only to be put in bags and jangled around quite a bit as some late night guard at the Bank of Canada got a thrill picking them up and slamming them down on the vault floor? ;)

Hey all,

New to the forum but have been lurking for a little bit.

I am waiting for my 2 x $10 1912 hand selected to arrive. I wish I could figure out the mints shipping....still "processing" my order! (man I'm jealous of those that have received their coins already)

After seeing some of the coins you guys have received I'm considering buying what's left at the mint. Looking at buying either 2 x 1913 or or 2 x 1914 $10 .

Question is...which coin would you guys consider the "better bet"? I bought the 1912's to one day give to my sons. Looking to do the same with the other 2 I am considering purchasing.

Thoughts?

these coins looks like they have never been circulated, gold is a soft metal, also there is a good reason why the rest of the 10 dollar pieces are not sold out. too many and market priced.
