from theR.C.M web site.... Ottawa, Ontario -- January 28, 2011 -- The Royal Canadian Mint is proud to announce the release of the 2011 "Grizzly" silver bullion coin; the second issue from its popular Canadian Wildlife 9999 fine one-ounce silver bullion coin series. This highly anticipated addition to the Mint's pure silver bullion collection was launched today at the World Money Fair in Berlin, Germany before the world's premier gathering of coin producers, distributors and buyers |

Are either the Wolf or Grizzly coins sold sealed, or straight out of a tube?

That's a shame; I find that a lot of silver maples stright out of the tube are always marked, blemished, etc.

Paid $29 for the wolf, what are the grizzlies going for? Last time I went price shopping, ounces were going for $5 over spot. I can't understand why retailers won't lower their prices if the commodities are priced that way. Lucky it wasn't rice or there'd be some revolting.

I caved and got 10 wolves. The dealer in my area sells them in 10's, sealed in thermotron strips.
I asked about the grizzlies and they think its going to be released soon, but no set date.

My local dealer says he'll have some of these in stock early next week. $4-5 bucks over spot sounds reasonable?

I would like to own this coin. as it turns out, Scotiabank deals with precious metals and they currently sell the 1oz wolf (ergo they should sell the Grizzly). Would it be advisable to buy from them or is this a bad idea? I've yet to contact them myself but none of you have mentioned anything about contacting your bank over this so I'm unsure. I suppose it wouldn't hurt to ask, but in the meantime I'd be happy to hear words of wisdom from my fellow CCF members.
