Now that the RCM has ended the $20 for $20 program I decided to finish my collection. I ended up with 21 coins (hope I got them all) and placed them in a Lighthouse presentation box.
I included four of the $25 for $25 coins as there is ample room in the case.
It was a little tricky taking pictures of the coins in their capsules, but here they are...

Those are amazing! I wish the US Mint did coins like those. That's a really nice way to display them coins! Will the slots fit ringed airtite holders? Looks like a good way to present maple leafs.

Thank you TheForce. The diameter of the $20 for $20 coins are 27mm. I believe the diameter of a one ounce maple is 38mm.

I guess what I meant was will these hold airtite holders with the rings? I don't use direct fit airtites.

Very nice! For me, it always feels good when I complete a set and am able to share it with others. It appears as if you feel the same!

Nice job!


PS It looks like you've accidentally added two images of the "Bobcat" and left off the 2014 "Summertime" coin. It would be great if you could edit your post and swap out the images so that your post is truly a complete view of the set!

Very good one.
After RCM has exhausted out of the Canadian ideas, its good that the progrsm ended.
Congrats for the full set. Looks great all together.

I would concider to add to the set the 2013 $20 Snake as well.
It has absolutelly same specs, including large mintage. The difference - issue price was CAD 30. Recently available for 20 - 25.

Thank you darryldarryl, commems, and Silveroid for the compliments. It is quite satisfying to complete a set.

TheForce, I don't have any experience with airtite holders, but I have used quadrum holders for the $20 for $20 coins.
