Neighbors Up North,

I would like to assemble a set of Canadian-minted Vancouver 2010 Olympics-related circulating coins but the Mint website is confusing me with all the different sets and packages. How many coins are there and what would be the easiest way to order them from the mint by buying the fewest number of items?

Should be 12 quarters, two loonies (orriginal released ones) then the latest 3 quarters gold, silver, broneze winners in both regular and color for a total of 20 coins.
I'd suggest these

And then wait till the other two new ones come out (silver and gold) and I suspect then there will be a set that includes the the three non-colored ones.

Is there any difference between the 11-sided collector's board you recommended and the other rectangular sets containing the same coins? Is it just different packaging? Thanks for your help.

As far as I can tell just packaging hopefully someone else can confirm.

Yep, that's all it appears to be.

I would also agree on that. It is interesting to note that on Colonial Acres, most of the Olympic coin sets cannot be shipped outside Canada for some reason. More specifically I am talking about the quarters in the collectors boards.
