Looks like a stunning set in a larger 5oz format. It is now on the RCM site for Master club members. (Prestige)

When I ordered my set they ask me how many sets I would like. So you can order as much as you like.
Have to admit though the ones they picked for this set are my personal favorite out of all the Murano coins minted.

Unless you are a flipper, I would imagine that you would only purchase 1. The price is a bit high for multiple's... just 'cos.
I just received my order confirmation email with a June 26th estimated ship date... We will see.

How many times are they going to recycle these coins? Pass

With no limit and still available is certainly a mark contrast to the Carousel Coin which sold out in minutes and had a limit of one. This indicates a lack of demand which is not surprising considering its high price. Besides, the Glass Murano coins have been done to death. What is the point of this new release except a cash grab. Quote: How many times are they going to recycle these coins? Pass Exactly, total lack of originality here. Quote: I'm guessing it'll be sold out before public release. None for me though Not likely. I don't see people rushing out to buy this set.

Quote: Not likely. I don't see people rushing out to buy this set. I realize that this set is not for everybody and out of some people price range, but I still think this is going to sell out when it does hit the general public. This is the first day on the RCM site and I believe that the only master club member that can view the set are Prestige members. I don't have the 1 oz format of these coins and I like the fact that they are 5 oz so I can display them along with my other 5 and 10 oz coins. Just my preference. :)

Quote: I believe that the only master club member that can view the set are Prestige members. There is no difference between Prestige and Platinum Plus members. We get the same advance warning email and same access to the website. You only need to spend $5000 to be Platinum Plus so a lot of Master Club members already seen the coin set. The fact remains why did the RCM make the same Murano Glass coin set except for the size and date. There is no originality to it at all. It is like doing the Big Coin Series over and over again. They were great and they then remake the same set but with colour. Then they did the it a 3rd time with a rose gold version. I already have original lady bug and there is no way I will spend close to $2000 for a duplicate.

@ MoneyPenney I guess its all about preference. Buy what you like. Not everyone has the original 1 oz coins. This is an opportunity for who ever likes this set to pick it up. I prefer the larger format for displaying my collection. Not for everyone though. The RCM are notorious in duplicating coins. It doesn't mean that you have to buy them all. I do have all Silver dollars from 1935 to date. Most of them are duplicates except for the date. Still a lot of peeps collect duplicate coins. I have to think that there aren't a whole lot of Prestige and Platinum Members that would jump on this set for it to be sold out. Probably will be sold out when it hits the general public. IMO

I am with you. I, too, missed out on the original one ounce coins. I like the large format whether it sells out or not. When I look back at the gold murano glass set that was priced at almost 18,000., I wish I had purchased that as well. It did not sell out .... it shows as "archived".

Almost assured that if this set sells out, there will be a colour version due to greed just so to devalue the original set, seen this many times

This is a colored coin set. The flowers and the insects are colored. I don't see what else they would color. The only thing that they would possibly do is a 5 oz gold plated coin which would look ugly.IMO I don't see that there would be any more versions of these coins. But I could be wrong. The silver back ground is perfect as it makes the colors stand out.

They could gold accent the rims, or what not didn't think the RCM would completely destroy the big coin series with it's many variations, but they did until we stop buying

I think, the coins already "milked" enough. People call it "half/half", kind of cream, but with the milk.
But, imo, still bit special. For the collector who missed the first coin, and don't want to pay 800-1000 for it, this set will be very nice purchase.

Talisman already have listed the set (together with other July release coins)
Have no idea, how many would they have of these sets, but no limit purchase specified.
