Well today was a bit disappointing... I got out of work and rushed off to the human rights museum ... however I arrived at 3:45 and they had just left!
So then I went to the mint.. to see if they had any to exchange.. and they told me that today was just the unveiling... the exchange will happen in Winnipeg on the 18th and 19th. Of course I have a wrestling tournament that I'm running that date... so I'll be asking a favor of my wife ...

Are the people with reps able to get more than 1? I used to be able to but my rep who is new is telling me 1 only.

Received mine today. Bit of weak strike on these and lots of marks/black spots. Still, hard to beat FV.
Coin chick - yes.

Hello Coin Chick
If you want to have more, the trick is to have multiple email addresses.
Whether the spouse, your brother, your sister, friend, you must serve you as their email address only.
For the rest it's just like as you ordered for you.
Your name, address, city, etc ..
To pay you entered the # of your credit card.
At the MRC is a computer robot that verifies and it only reads the email.
As e-mail address is different, the robot accept it and you will have your order.
You can have this way much as you want.
To pay goes to the box: Guest Checkout

Quote: Are the people with reps able to get more than 1? I used to be able to but my rep who is new is telling me 1 only. Did you get the email order from your rep? First time I ever got an email for this type of coin. There was no limit on the order form so ordered 20 of them. My rep confirmed the order. I wonder if I ordered 100 of them if they will go through.

I did get the order form and replied in a couple of hours. Was told two days later that limit was now one.. I had a few email exchanges and have worked it out.

You could also sign up for a standing order back in Oct where you could specify the number of x or x coins and/or circulation packages you wanted for 2016. Reps allowed pretty much anything you asked for though they didn't guaranty extra quantities. Just saw this on Facebook. It's the top comment on these loonie packs. Not only did 192 people 'like' this comment, there are a dozen more along the same lines even though other people continually post that it is a circulation coin and the mintage is 5 million. Sometimes I think I forget how uniformed the gen pop is about coins and coin collecting.  Someone even posted they 'wished they could afford it'. FV coin, no tax or shipping...

Did anyone attend a coin exchange? Wondering if there is a collector card available?

Cc Ottawa. I haven't been able to enjoy coins recently due to 2 young children. So I've missed out on lots of coins. Try to always do these sets but I missed out on the poppy ones. And I don't live in an area where I can get mint rolls. I will search for that email and contact my rep to see if I can still do that.
