So, I've received today 3 $20x$20 coins from the RCM. Do you see something strange?

 So based on what you were supposed to receive, which is wrong? The coins or the card?

@arianzo:
Is it full "Bobcat" card or on other side "The goose" printed?
Cause if it just other card, it is interesting mistake, but not "an error".

Interesting. The coin on the far right has the goose reversed.

I'm honestly trying to figure out how they could have made that mistake. I've never taken the tour at any of the mint's locations so I can only picture one worker in this dark messy basement with coins all over the place packaging everything. It would explain a lot for me. ( cost management )
It's not a big deal but I mean it is kind of a joke. I'm guessing he won't be alone.

I assume, that it serves as the touristic place, mass media center, and very limited production. And all real process...no, not there.

Certain packaging like Oh Canada sets, are 3rd party to private company.

Why would it be an error ? , they made some mistake that sent you 3 coins on one card . Maybe the machine had a glitch in its program but I do not see an error , I see a nice gift .

Simple problem in the warehouse. Call and order some COA and problem is solved.

It's funny because I asked my representative to cancel my future orders of this series and he replied that the Bobcat coins (3) have already been shipped and that the next coins of the series are canceled. And what do I receive? 3 very nice Bobcat cards with 3 Goose coins.... so I guess that now I've a very good reason to return them. Quote:nalaberong Toss it on ebay - rare packaging error! It's not a bad idea at all. Quote: Silveroid Is it full "Bobcat" card or on other side "The goose" printed? Cause if it just other card, it is interesting mistake, but not "an error". A normal card.... Quote: chubbycheeks I'm honestly trying to figure out how they could have made that mistake.

I figured out the same stuff. And I think it's the first time that there are two $20x$20 coins available at the same time. Usually the previous one was already sold out so I guess they have one big opened box for Gooses and other box for Bobcat and they take and pack them, the same with the cards.

At this point, it's just hilarious for me.
