Info from RCM rep ——————————————————————— 2018 Antique Carousel features a spinning carousel. This coin is crafted in 6oz's of fine silver, enchanting detailed gold plated horses that move up and down as the carousel spins in an exquisite antique design. The carousel is affixed and is completely capable of rotating with the included magnet! |

Cool. Next in the series will be a car driving off the edge of the coin and busting into flames. The third and last of course will be Fonzie on water skis.  Edited by CC-Ottawa

When is the RCM going to start making memorials to the most necessary structures of Colonial and Post-Colonial times? The JohhnyHouse?  These offerings seem to me to get more outrageous each and every time! Besides the price, yea, collectable niche, but...?  Edited by Crazyb0

Huh? Seems interesting but kind of confusing.

Another ornament masquerading as coin. The RCM are obviously having issues creatively with NCLT... Maybe they are making too much... Naw can't be that... I like the image of Fonzie on water skis but this is Canada... should be snow skis jumping a cougar backlit by the Aurora lit in GITD. Since we are moving from static figurines (bears, moose etc.) to moving items, maybe the RCM can put the Queen's head and $50 on the tail of a Bombardier CRJ creating a whole new category of NCLA (Non-Circulating Legal Aircraft.  |

This sounds interesting and I am excited to see it. I have already said yes to putting one on hold with my rep. I think this will sell out quickly.

Last year we had:
2017 CANADA-150-PEACE TOWER-CLOCK 5oz SILVER COIN
Mintage 1200
I don't remember, if something moved there...but seems that coin doesn't do really well.
But after UFO coin, I know, that everything is possible.

@New1954 I am more into creative silver bar now, such as this 4oz High Relief Silver Bar. ( .925 silver ) [URL="https://postimages.org/]  [/url][URL="https://postimages.org/]free photo hosting[/url] |

The third and last of course will be Fonzie on water skis. The RCM jumped the shark a long time ago. They need to change their name to RC PM C - Royal Canadian Precious Metals Collectables. The stuff they make can still be nice, but redefining the term "coin" to encompass some of their offerings has gone way past common sense. |

@silveroid
People are paying $700.00 or around there, for that UFO Falcon Lake Incident and it is a one ounce glow in the dark. So, possibly this carousel, may be a hit or it could be a miss. One never knows what people are willing to pay if there should be an immediate sell out of this new coin.

You right, New1954, could be anything, and probably RCM will be fast sellout. Someone mentioned here and on other resource, that the less priced coins have the "room" to grow up, compares to already expensive ones. |
