To canadian_coins:

thanks for the info, this makes the 1997 musical ride bullion rarer than proof GML:) only those 99999 and 2004 GML has lower mintage than it

SilverBug,

Thanks. Remember that mintage may not always translate into higher demand/prices. I Just sold a 25 cent 20x of what I paid only 4 years ago (Nuthatch) - and among the series it is not even the rarest.

canadian_coins: I spent 1,660 on that coin when gold was around 1600. good for you on that 25c coin, I rarely saw a RCM coin can gain so much. recently I'm collecting 50c golden flower, I bouhgt them all under 30, the cheapest one is 20, half of the issue price, which makes me wonder why I should buy coins from RCM:)

Very good looking. But too many were minted.

i expect next year addition will be low, because the dragon one will be a flop. because of mintage...but never know they might just mint to demand and just stop producing the dragon, especially if silver tanks below 20$....still a mighty nice looking coin...

Looks like the Lotus has the early lead. The Lotus just hit the "Last Chance" page. Didn't think they would sell out of these.

Okay, so I asked this question under the Precious Metal Forum page but do you guys think the Chinese Flower coins would be a better option then the Canadian lotus? They are both beautiful coins, whats ya'll opinion?

The Canadian Lotus for sure. There is no writing on the reverse, which allows the coin to be all about the artwork. And the artwork is up there with the best the Mint has done.
