Pure Silver 2/3oz - FV $20 - Dancing Diamond contains diamond and selective gold plate - 36mm - Mintage 750 - $899.95
Pure Silver - 1oz - FV $20 - Avro Arrow - 38mm - Mintage 10,000 - $119.95

Pure Silver - 2oz - FV $30 - Manitoba 150 (reprise Manitoba Dollar from 1970 - 50mm - Mintage 2,500 - $199.95
SE Silver Dollar Set - Base metal proof set with BU Silver dollar with Bluenose design - Mintage $30,000 - 99.95
Previous Subscriptions:
Pure Silver - 5oz - FV $50 - 3rd coin in 100 yrs of confederation set (flight) - 65.25mm - $599.95
Pure Silver - 1/4oz - FV $5 - Moments to Hold 25th anniversary of arobreal emblem (Maple leaf) - 27mm - Mintage 100,000
GST/HST applicable to Mountie Hat, Diamond coin and SE Dollar Set.
Notes:
- The 5oz Avro Arrow is a sleek modern design and appeals to me. The Maple leaf shadow from the Arrow is a nice touch. (Too expensive though)
- It is nice to see the 2021 dollar in BU. It has been many years since the SE set included a Silver dollar that was straight BU and not coloured or a different design. Additionally on the SE set, the dime has KGVI obverse and the dollar the KGV obverse. The rest are QEII.
- The Manitoba 30 Dollar is odd. It looks like it could have been the re-imagined dollar from last year and it is dated 2020 but it is face valued at $30 and is a year late.
- I am disappointed in the pricing of the gold coins.. with them now stretching to $4,200 /oz Gold ounces are becoming even more unaffordable. Edited by vonigohcr

I will definitely buy the 'base' proof set; why stop now?
My collection guidelines also mean I should pick up the gold dime, but I just can't buy any coin at that price. I'll end up labeling an empty 2x2 for it and place that in my dime binder, but will never fill it. Even if it sold at spot value, most gold coinage is way above my price limits.

I'll be grabbing the base set and the 1 oz now that the 5 is sold out. I would like the Mountie hat, but as a gold member I think I'll be at risk of that one being sold out. Any insight from you big spenders on the risk of that one being gone?

Along with the 5oz Avro Arrow being sold out, the renewed $2 http://goccf.com/t/397899 is sold out. The renewed $2 was not in the email from my rep but it was in the May mailout that I received today so I guess it was an early May release. None of the other May releases are sold out at this point nor is the RCM sharing the % sold yet. My only purchase this time was the base proof set... The bighorn sheep is very tempting as it is well executed and I do have a focus on 1st Nations designs but it is just too rich for my blood... Same with the 5oz Avro Arrow. @atticguy Quote:
My collection guidelines also mean I should pick up the gold dime You should modify your guidelines...  This coin has as much in common with a true dime as a lion has with a domestic pet cat... similarities are at best oblique. Outside of the reverse design and face value... the obverse is unique, the size is wrong, the weight and metal choice is wrong... there are plenty of criteria that would allow you to disqualify this from your collection... It makes more sense to reserve the empty 2x2 for a real 1936 dot dime. I fully agree with your assessment, $4200 is too much for an ounce of gold... That said... I would happily pay $4,200 for a true 1936 dot dime that contains less than $2 worth of silver...  what a funny hobby we have... |

The renewed TOONIE coin is the FIRST issue in this series and it was a MASTER CLUB EXCLUSIVE and it was released via email a few days ago and it sold out quickly. One Per Household only. The Mountie Hat coin is still available and if the RCM were smart and started to promote this, I believe this could be a hit. I did buy the 5 ounce Avro Arrow coin, The mountie hat, the 1 ounce Avro Arrow coin, and the base set and please don't shoot me but I also bought the dancing diamond coin. Could not resist. My biggest order in a very long time. Edited by New1954

Has anyone received 2020 Annual Collection book? I was supposed to receive 2019 Annual collection book last year, but it never came out. This year, I was downgraded to Prestige so I don't know if I will receive one or not.

2019 Annual Collection Book was never published. However, before the loyalty program was modified last year, it was marked as a benefit for top tier Masters Club members.

It is worst for people living in a PST province like BC where there is 7% tax tacked on the price, making it close to $4500. That is practically my entire coin budget for the year. Quote:

Didn't your rep send you an email regarding the Renewed Toonie last week? It was separate from the My releases. Quote:

I'm also interested in Mountie Hat. But RCM charges 15% taxes (I'm in Quebec). However, others dealers such as CC&C charges only 5% tax. That's about $22 in savings. So I will buy it from other deals. |

For some reason I had it set in my mind this was 2500 mintage, possibly thinking the 52mm? Maybe the double 2's in the price. But yes, at 6500 I feel confident this will fall to me and go nice with the mountie silver sculpture coin. Never thought I'd start a mountie collection, but here we are... |
