I really don't like this collection $5 gold  So far the best $10 OCS  My favorite perfect choice a finish much better then the beaver!  Overall I like it better then the beaver but that's it nothing spectacular |

The silvers look nice but I am disappointed in the Gold bear. I will still pick one up but the Mint could have done much better with it.

The silvers are striking, the gold one I agree is not impressive at all. I can't wait until I get the RCMP and polar bear coin. I'm glad I got the half oz sub, I couldn't afford the 1 oz, it's a shame. I love the pics that are shared. The beaver pales besides the Inushuk and now the polar bear. Thanks fo people for posting photos. Rox

the 1/2oz polar bear looks so lonely and sad

the 1/2oz polar bear looks so lonely and sad That's true... But it will be happy, when I'll pair it with the 1oz coin. So happy, that ordered 1/2oz and 1oz subscriptions - they complete each other. This is actually exactly what I looked for in the Canadian Wildlife coins/series: the animal in it's natural environment, proof finish and nice representation. The old platinum sets unreachable (price), and 2 silver sets (Arctic Fox and Canadian Lynx) not enough... Edited by Silveroid

I signed up for the 1oz silver and 1/10oz gold subscription. I agree that the gold coins haven't been as nice as the silver ones. One main reason could be because of the surface area. Regardless, one I have all 5 coins, I will be more than happy to put them in their collector boxes.
TheOne, did you do a subscription for the 1/10oz gold and 1oz silver coins? If you did, did you get the box?

I picked up the 1/10 oz gold beaver. I should RMA it for the poor showing of the 1/10 polar bear it's.... just terrible.
