It has a Triceratops and is same as the first one in size and is 99.99% fine silver. I personally think the 2007 dino coin is a bit better then this years one when it comes to detail. Also I looked through 5 different 2008 ones looking for a nice coloured background where they do the special etching but nothing to fancy. Still a nice coin though.

In my opinion they did a way better job then the previous year (second year version) with the triceratops and maybe my email to them sunk in about quality Anyways, I think they did a very good job and the etching is as nice as the first year version. Cost was $42.95cdn + pst and they seem to be selling well most likely due to the fact its a T-Rex. Now there is only one more left to go to complete the set which will be available 2010.

I got mine yesterday!!! BTW, I bought mine from Gatewest Coins, as I didn't see it updated on the RCM web site. Where did you get yours? On another note, I love these things as well...thats #3 in the 4 coin series!!   04-15-2009, 03:19 PM   #30 (permalink) WhispTech Senior Member     Join Date: Oct 2004 Location: Ontario, Canada Posts: 174 I didn't see an update on the Canada mint site either which was strange. I get mine however from my friends store who gets them from an other coin store that supplies the city with Canada Mint prduct. Funny enough I went and picked them up from the other store for my friends store lol. __________________ "Tokens are tokens, medals are medals, coins are coins, and "medal coin" is simply a contradiction in terms."
