I wonder if the tempering of precious metal spot prices will have any impact on the coin prices in the Mint's April release - now about a week away.

Nope. The silver dollar is $219.95. Other o.75oz silver coins are $219.95 as well. 1oz $25 The Calling of an Engineer is 359.95. RCM greed will be the end of NCLT |

Advance notice of silver dollar commemorating birth of QE II, $219.95 That's a price point that is too high for me for a Silver Dollar. I understand the major escalation in Silver Spot, but at some point, the asking price exceeds my sense of value of the piece. And $219.95 has reached that point!

BTW, last year's "The Calling of an Engineer" (1 oz) was listed at $179. This year's version is listed at $359. I'll be passing on that one for sure too!. I'll be spending my money on the CN Tower rolls and set this time around. Edited by mikem

That's a price point that is too high for me for a Silver Dollar. I am in total agreement with you. It appears that my all inclusive Canadian Commemorative Silver Dollar collection ends this year. Sadly, because it contains so many notable coins. $219.95 for the Special Edition Proof Silver Dollar - 100th Anniversary of the Birth of Queen Elizabeth II (2026) just pushed me over the edge. ...  |

Totally agree on Silver Dollar price. Let it be CAD 120 or even 150 - I would buy, but not 200+ In generally, when silver was 20-30 for oz, I had no problem to overpay and buy them for 100-150. But now days RCM is asking nearly CAD 300 ... not affordable at all and total pass. |

It would be a shame if the Mint's new pricing model caused the end of its flagship commemorative coin series. Hopefully, they are looking at options!
