Jackalope Valued Member Canada 194 Posts	Posted 11/03/2015 4:05 pm Why a medallion and not a coin? Why are 1 oz. coins selling for $100+ but a 1 oz medallion for $49.95? Report this Post to the Staff

Silveroid Pillar of the Community Canada 6768 Posts	Posted 11/03/2015 5:33 pm Better to be a coin. I am not sure that this is "medallion"....looks like just round. But 1oz RCM coin with the NASCAR theme - there is a chance that I would get it, and medallion/round - no, thanks. Btw, Dodge has celebrated 100-th anniversary in the 2014, the greatest of these cars being manufactured here, in Ontario (perfect Canadian connection)...an no coin. Report this Post to the Staff
CC-Ottawa Pillar of the Community Canada 3690 Posts	Posted 11/03/2015 6:50 pm It's truly telling that the RCM is producing this trinket and to your point Jackalope, if they can sell a 1oz medallion with matter proof finish for 50 bucks, why are we paying $100 for something similar simply because it has a token (sorry for the pun) denomination?! Per CC&C specs: Obverse: Queen Elizabeth II Reverse: NASCAR race Artist: Arturo Rotondo Finish: Matte Proof Quantity Produced: 30000 Monarch: Queen Elizabeth II Theme(s): Sports http://www.cdncoin.com/2016-1oz-Med...32073555.htm This is the ~~coin~~ medallion: Ok, for the rest of this post, I apologize in advance. Clearly, The Queen on the obverse is looking very.....tired. Edited by CC-Ottawa 11/03/2015 6:54 pm Report this Post to the Staff
