defone Valued Member Canada 62 Posts	Posted 01/27/2011 3:48 pm Great design. Does anyone know if this issue is expected to eventually be made available in coin stores? Report this Post to the Staff
Canadian-Banknotes Pillar of the Community Canada 4944 Posts	Posted 01/27/2011 4:02 pm Quote: Boy the Mint's web site was unusually slow this morning... Probably because of how many people are ordering that coin. Thanks for posting the picture of the reverse canadian_coins. Quote: Does anyone know if this issue is expected to eventually be made available in coin stores? Not at the rate these things will be selling. Just my opinion. (Unless the dealer buys a lot, and if they do. They will be charing more than $20.) Edited by Canadian-Banknotes 01/27/2011 4:03 pm Report this Post to the Staff

rodime Valued Member Canada 276 Posts	Posted 01/27/2011 4:17 pm You can order over the phone with just the item number, even if you're not a master's club member. Just saying. Report this Post to the Staff

Koin Hunter Valued Member Canada 322 Posts	Posted 01/27/2011 7:57 pm This new coin is number 1 on the mints best seller list already...better get some fast...before there all gone... Report this Post to the Staff
canadian_coins Pillar of the Community United States 2408 Posts	Posted 01/27/2011 8:45 pm I am glad you folks could order the coin without being master club members. My sister-in-law (and maybe a few more relatives) are maxing out on the coins themselves. So we'll see how quickly this sells out. Report this Post to the Staff
dialog_gvf Pillar of the Community Canada 1581 Posts	Posted 01/27/2011 9:04 pm Is this truly legal tender? With a 200000 mintage (very unscarce), only about 1/4 troy oz. of silver ($80 spot needed for face value) and no loss incurred, the possibility of an attempt to spend them is there. This is going to be interesting to see how this plays out. Some might see it as a thin edge of a wedge against fiat currencies. Imagine if this lead to demands from the public for more real money?

rodime Valued Member Canada 276 Posts	Posted 01/27/2011 9:07 pm Of course there is a demand in the public for more real money. Whether or not the mint continues to produce it is another question. Seems to be more of a PR thing - maybe they're also feeling out the "how do canadians like coins because we're killing the penny" market... Report this Post to the Staff
Canadian-Banknotes Pillar of the Community Canada 4944 Posts	Posted 01/27/2011 9:24 pm Whats the phone number? Report this Post to the Staff
canadian_coins Pillar of the Community United States 2408 Posts	Posted 01/27/2011 9:32 pm If this is a PR thing then it is working for me. I'd rather have $200 worth $70 in silver, than $200 worth $0.01 in paper. Can't wait to hear back from people who will spend the money. We might eventually have circulation grades for NCLT. Amazing times. Report this Post to the Staff
Koin Hunter Valued Member Canada 322 Posts	Posted 01/27/2011 9:33 pm I just saw it on ebay... presale... asking $32.95... Report this Post to the Staff
realpenny Valued Member 423 Posts	Posted 01/27/2011 10:15 pm BIG thank you Koin Hunter! I hope I can get some. And thanks Canadian Coins for the pictures. Still liking this years 1/25 gold coin, but more to enjoy won't hurt. Do master club members get to see how many coins remain or is there anywhere you can go to see the number?

Libertad Pillar of the Community Canada 3692 Posts	Posted 01/27/2011 10:27 pm Why doesn't this coin designate its weight on the coin itself? This seems like a rip-off to me. Edited by Libertad 01/27/2011 10:30 pm Report this Post to the Staff
