Hi folks!

I just want to share some photos of my Maple Canopy series.

I know some of you don't care for the second in the series (Autumn 2013), but you may change your mind when you see all four coins together.

Whatever your tastes may be, here they are in all their glory:

It's not that they're ugly. In fact, they're all really nice coins but they just seem to come from two different series.

I already have #1 but I never bought #2 and #3. I intend to buy #4 as soon as I can find it with a 20% discount.

I agree with thecurse9, 1 & 4 seem to be one series and 2 & 3 another.

Nice set, NuMoose, thanks for sharing!

I have #1, #2 and #4
But the second one will list for sale.
I still hope, that somewhere in 2015-2016 RCM will mint rest of the seasons.

Thanks for sharing the images!

Have to agree with others re: the coins looking like they are from two different series. Of course, coins #1 and #4 were designed by one artist while #2 and #3 were designed by a different artist - two from each artist. It's not surprising that they have very different styles.

I typically shy away from colorized coins, but those are breathtakingly beautiful. The way the branches shoots through the leaves like bolts of silver lightening is mesmerizing.

Thanks for your comments guys!

I actually like having "two sets in one". It reminds of of this old TV commercial:

WARNING!

Please don't trying chewing on your coins, it won't stop bad breath and may lead you on a trip to your dentist.

Love this this set! I think the 2nd coin does fit in fine as it is the only one with a red leaf and a bare tree.

I am not sure they needed 2 spring coins but even so its a beautiful set.

Nice pics Moosey.

Actually they all fit in , spring is green leafs , summer is green leafs, fall is yellow/brown/red , winter is bare tree with a few red/yellows on the ground... they could have put some red in the fall one too but that's just being nit picky lol

It's the way they decided to use the Canada 20 Dollars and 2014 that makes it so miss matched. Well at least that's how I see it. The trees are off as well but I could forgive that part. The first in the series is still on my top list in 2013.

Regardless together the set still looks good Moose

When I see the last coin available everywhere for issue price, I feel strange with the question:
"How could be, that world-wide less than 7.500 collectors, that need this coin?"
7500 - is big number?

And something in addition:
Is the old Mint facility in Ottawa capable to mint all these huge amounts of NCLT coins? It should be multi-underground levels plant for this....

Great pictures NuMoosematist !

The first one is one of the best ever coins I've seen.

I remember many people here wanted to put the Autumn Bliss coin instead of the #2 of this series. If you have that one too it would be interesting to compare the pictures.

In my wanting list are the #3 and #4. The #3 could be found at issue price?

Thanks again for all your positive comments. I'm glad you folks are enjoying viewing these coins.

@ Arianzo who asked "The #3 could be found at issue price?"

The 3rd coin, Spring Splendour is still available at issue price:
