I am fairly new buying on the RCM site, and was looking at this set and it is 95.00 per coin(The Silver Britannia,Vienna Philharmonic,Silver Panda, Silver Eagle, and Silver Maple Leaf). With a little bit of research most of these coins can be bought elsewhere at dealers and online for like 30-50. Each coin is 1oz silver.
Other than the F15 privy designation on the Maple Leaf, and collectors box I don't see any other markings or designations on the other coins.
Am I missing something? Is it way over priced from the mint?

The other coins besides the Maple Leaf are regular bullion and way over priced from the mint

to the CCF!

You do not miss the point.
Search this forum for F15 or Fabulous 15 subscriptions and you will see.

The F15 was same way overpriced, but it cointains also some coins, the F15 privy coins, that as singles will be priced as $100+.

But F5 set.....have realy nothing interesting. Contains BU coins, not proofs (well Panda kind "Proof"). If you like F15 SML, my advice - just buy it for $100 - $120.

Good advice. Thinking now should get in the Fabulous 15, since it states it ships the SML first, pay the 59.95, then cancel after I receive. Wishful thinking probably, but even if I have to pay the 94.95 if I cancel still not bad for the one SML coin.

Be careful with F5, if I remember, it written that SML will be the last coin (in opposite to F15).

Btw, when I compare 2012 F15 SML (Reverse Proof) and 1989 Proof SML - the second one looks better, IMO.

Good points, thats why I think better to select the Fabulous 15 as the SML is the first coin shipped as they state on their link.

Here is the ebay URL:

BIN $90 + $15 shipping in Canada - and it yours. Just ask the seller about coin condition.

Reverse proof on the SML is beautiful. I have the Titanic privy one and I LOVE it.

I've ordered the 2013 F15 set a couple months back and am still waiting for my first coin, though I think they initially said mid may so we'll know soon enough.
