    You can get them here http://www.mint.ca/store/template/home.jsp, but not yet. Don't know when they will be for sale on their web site. I signed up on an automatic mailing list so I guess I got mine before they start to sell them to the public. I think someone said that they don't go on sale officially until next week. I will have my third one up for sale, but I was going to send if off to NGC for grading first if you are interested. JOE

    Like Spannermonkey said, more like a quarter oz. I believe it is a tad above a quarter oz.

    No, there are none available unless you were on the preorder list like myself. If you wait until next week, you can order one from the Canadian Royal Mint. $20CDN plus shipping which is about $12.

    They are producing two coins a year for the set which may lend to many collector's confussion.

    Yes, you can use a Credit Card. That is how I paid for mine. You are allowed to purchase up to three coins per person. I purchase the max each time. It works out to be about $25 per coin.

    I believe the Royal Canadian Mint will only ship these coins to Canadian or US addresses. If you live elsewhere, you will not be able to place an order directly from the RCM.

    Jaceravone, do you use NGC or PCGS for these? Any come back as MS70's?
