Do you miss Canadian Flag? Don't you worry, you'll be fed up.  Also we'll get important people and quite a few coin sets. Edited by mts

Don't you worry, you'll be fed up. Good RCM marketing. First, mint and sell the non-expensive $25for$25 coin attached to subscription, then, the same coin as single, and in the next release issue more expensive and nicer variant of the same design element. The MC event will be held on Dec 10-th, where the people could see real coins (i hope real and not pictures) preview. |

The hot coin will be just the $25x$25 coin.

I'm with Silveroid. The design of the other flag coins is pretty decent, though the other parameters are still unknown to me.

@ Yup, it's so true about the fractional set. It's why I returned mine to RCM. They don't seem to retain issue price. A few graded ones will sell higher, but not all that many. The red 1 Oz maple leaf is exceptionally beautiful , but not enought for the price. |

@pocket change 50 Yes I have noticed that with even sets from say The Royal Mint, Perth Mint,, even Somalian elephant sets... I wonder why.. that said, while this 2015 fraction set in OGP has gone for less on ebay,, the PF 69 and PF70 sets are going for way much more, and on auctions that... so go figure. I guess the collecting market puts more a premium on these coins being graded than just in OGP.. would be my simple observation.. |

What else looks spectacular, mts?
Mine issue with GITD Star Charts, that all the gimmick in the printed colour, and the idea isn't fresh.
The RAM struck it's domed series, while the start crafted from silver (hope, I not mistake), and they look more bold, rather colored and glow.
Tomorrow is the day, when the invited MC will see and picture the coins, and order them. Didn't approve the invite, since trying to limit coin purchases.

Well, sometimes it hard to tell as the real coins look different than artistic image. When we are talking about the colourized coins you could get totally different shades (up to 50 ), when we are talking about non-colourized, then it impossible to portray the actual relief of the coin. What I can say is that they are at least NOT boring. Btw. there are not so many of them this time. However, this might be due to my limited abilities to see the future. |

I really like the star charts. Just wondering if it can be had cheaper somewhere? It's on my wish list. I'd love to attend those release parties; just to see new coins in hand. I'd leave my credit info at home, so I couldn't do an impulse buy. It's worth would be in meeting people and seeing the offerings in hand. I enjoy window shopping some items.

@pocket change 50. Agreed. Would also love to attend release parties. Hopefully someone attending will post some details regarding tomorrow nights RCM releases. Did get an invite to the Banff Springs Hotel in June when they unveiled the Ghost Bride Coin. Unfortunately, they don't preview enough coins here. |

ug, the colored coins with red just look awful! the ducks and wildlife colored look good, but any other ones the cheaper ones mostly just look fake.
