    Hi,
    Nice coin, hope that dont have the milk problem.

    Do you know if its an individual coin or will be part of a new serie like the wildlife serie (wolf, bear,....)

    Regards

    this is supposed to be a bullion with the expected mintage of 500 000.
    the problem is it doesn't fit to any widely used capsules ... too thick ...

    They are bullion, but priced much higher than maples--around $10/oz premium

    Yeah its a bit of a scam theyre about 62 bucks on silvergoldbull.com as nice as it looks Ill probably pass due to the premium.

    Ok , I recieved these today and have to say they are fantastic coins same size as regular RCM 1oz coins but half as thick again very happy and will get a roll or two ordered in next day or two. I paid 40 (GBP) that's including this stupid 20% vat we have here.

    Same here. Anything that doesn't have a capsule ready to go for it, well I just don't buy it.

    So far I haven't bought a Polar Bear or a Philharmonic because of the lack of proper air tites.

    The next time I place an order for airtites, I will include the x38mm for my polar bears, they are an *almost* perfect fit at worst. At best, some have reported that they totally close around the coin for them but the foam ring is thinner than the coin, which is not an issue for me. [​IMG]

    Anyone can confirm this? Because some eBay Seller put the mintage as 8500 only.


    TIA :D
