Looking at the August 2018 new release, it strikes me that the
RCM could follow their path from 2017 and release
two 2018 circulation sets:
1. 2018 uncirculated set which is currently available (
RCM called this the "classic" set in 2017), and
2. 2018
coloured uncirculated set which would be new (
RCM called this the "2017 Canada 150 5-coin collection" last year and also released a full 12-coin version). This would be the circulation edition with coloured coins of the 2018 6-coin set with medallion that just came out.
I'm actually kind of surprized that something like #2 has not already happened. It certainly would be MUCH more affordable for collectors and if done right
RCM could capitalize on the popularity of the Canada 150 circulation coins.
