Does anyone have a list of all the Canadian 1967 half dollar design (only) howling wolf coins and commemorative issues made?
I like the design enough I was researching to see what a full set containing one of each would cost. I could search online forever, or thought maybe someone might already know?

I'm aware of the following:
- 1967 50 Cents (Original release) - 1867-2017 50 Cents (0.999 fine silver, included in "1967 Centennial - Colville" Proof set) - 1867-2017 50 Cents (Big Coin Series - oversized (5 oz.) coins with selective gold plating) - 2020 50 Cents (1/10th ounce gold coin) - 2020 50 Cents (2 oz. silver coin w/ selective gold plating)

Thanks for this info. I can dream of a display having each one. I can imagine some of those are petty pricey!

They can be pricey but I also believe that we are entering the period where the pricing will begin to drop.
The proof set mintage was 20,000 The Big Coin mintage was 2,150 and the release price was $560. The Gold 1/10 oz mintage was 1,200 and the release price was $365 The 2oz Master Club Renewed 50C mintage was 2,500 and the release price was $200
Most of the "Big Coin" series from 2015-are dropping in price at auction and can be picked up for around $400... Sometimes as part of the set. I haven't seen the Coleville set recently though
The 2oz Masters Club coins have appreciated but not too much... but don't expect them to be at release price for a few years yet; they can also be a challenge to find.
You may also have challenges with the proof set as it was sold as a set and you may have to buy the set for $250+ to extract the 50c.
I also have not seen the gold 1/10 oz at auction but that may be more a consequence of the auction sites I frequent.
Since all of these coins are relatively recent, you may have success with a larger LCS but then you will be paying full retail.

While I have no idea what coins you may find interesting, I think I have a coin that could interest you. The 2002 50˘ coin features an entirely different portrait of Queen Elizabeth II, It may be a design you find interesting.
Forgot to mention this isn't a howling wolf coin.

We have no idea what you're talking about. There is no 2002 Howling Wolf design. We're gonna need pics.

As a display, would think to get:
The proof set mintage was 20,000 - because the design of each of the coins unseparated from entire set
The 2oz Master Club Renewed 50C mintage was 2,500 and the release price was $200 - best display / price piece. Detailed, but not oversized.

@Canadacoinfan: Thanks for the link. Yes, the last picture on the page does make her look more regal. I would have liked that one to be the one they used instead of the "everybody's grandmother" effigy.
