Silveroid Pillar of the Community Canada 6768 Posts	Posted 05/15/2014 11:02 am The theme itself is weak. If the coin was minted with the pieces of glass embedded, it could be interesting for people who collects unusual stuff on the coins. Yes, here is the hand paint work, but it gives the coin look of the button or round. Start the Canada Castles or the Provinces Floral emblems on top of the Pure Silver coin - will be good, but this projected to finish with low final mintage due to no demand.

DBM Pillar of the Community Canada 9864 Posts	Posted 05/15/2014 11:24 am A fitting start to the series. The coin like the house (castle?) is made for show with no substance, nothing innovative nor of historical importance. "Dipping" is not considered cleaning... -from PCGS website Report this Post to the Staff

CoinCanuck94 Pillar of the Community Canada 644 Posts	Posted 05/15/2014 11:49 am At first I thought this coin would actually have embedded stained glass on the surface, if it did I probably would have bought it. Report this Post to the Staff
Cassidy77 Pillar of the Community Canada 541 Posts	Posted 05/29/2014 2:17 pm as a pro stained glass artist since 1981 I think this coin is not remarkable..they should have chosen a nice old iconic church window instead or something historical from the parliament buildings...now its time for my nap Report this Post to the Staff

pocket change 50 Pillar of the Community Canada 1751 Posts	Posted 05/29/2014 4:59 pm This is a really poorly executed idea, when comparing to other coins of this nature done by the Aussies. They done some very beautiful & expensive coins that are popular in Europe. I agree this series is a snooze fest! Report this Post to the Staff
