Have a chance to see this coin at the local PO.

Glad I did not order any of it. So disappointed. The glass candy is too small and thin. The Venetian glass element does not pop out like the previous ones do.
Save me $150. :)

I actually hated this coin when I saw the original pic of it, but after seeing it in person it has started to grow on me. I think its pretty obvious that this coin is going to sell out everywhere before Christmas.

I don't like it and do not want to add it to my collection.

I did not buy a bunch of them to flip. so I don't care if it is doing well or not. If it is doing well. Then let it be.

Got my Candy cane coin. Slightly disappointed at the size of the candy cane. As expected, it is not the same as the picture provided by the Mint. I still like it though. Would prefer if the candy is bigger

Here are the pictures I took with my Nexus 4.

Does anyone know if they fixed the bug where we could order but couldn't pay for the "Candy Cane" at CanadaPost website?

Uh Oh! Lostwords, I fear this statement will lead to all kinds of bad jokes and double entendres. I can already think of a few, but I doubt if they would be permitted here...

Seriously, since each glass cane is handmade, it's natural that they would all be different.

Also, both coins look very colourful!

I'm afraid I can't help you with this, thecurse9. I was not aware there was a problem ordering the cane online.
