Just wondering if anyone has heard any rumors or has any predictions about what the sixth coin of the Wildlife Series will be?

Thought it would make sense that it would be the beaver, but that is the new $20 for $100 coin isn't it ? Beautiful coin.

Hey,  that's a great idea for 2017 (150 years)  do the 1967 set again!  Hear me RCM!

Both my local dealer and Royal Canadian Mint contact said that there were issues continuing the series. What I hear is that the last coin will be at least very delayed if not cancelled.

Oh no, that doesn't sound good. Well if it has to be one or the other, I'm hoping for a delay. I was actually hoping they would ADD coins to the series.

I think a "hook nosed" Salmon fully mature leaping out of a waterfall going upstream would be a great 6th edition for the series... if they could pull off the design just right. They've put Salmon on coins before, but I don't recall seeing one like that . . .

The idea of a salmon is very good, but I guess I'm partial to mammals. I'm hoping they stick with 'big game' and go with something like an elk, caribou, whitetail, or bighorn. Man, so many choices. I wish they would keep going and make this a 10 or 20 coin series.

Whitetail was my second thought, they've done them well before on other coins. Two bighorn rams clashing would be awesome!

why not include them all?  they could turn this into a permanent series with lots of cool designs.

I agree 100%. The maple leaf is great, but for a similar premium, I'll pick these every time.

A think a permananet wildlife series is an excellent idea, and Canada has the biodiversity to support it.
