Yes, they are all sold out in the Royal Canadian Mint Yes, all 600 are sold out in Royal Canadian Mint. This is the piece of the History to be collected and becasuse of the low mintage, the value will go higher and higher.
Usually I stay as far away as possible from a coin that is advertised as a piece that will go up in value. But if it does, good for those who have it. The design sure is interesting. Christian
I love that coin, and have been watching them on eBay. They aren't selling for even a small bit over their issue price. I actually want silver to plummet so I can get one.
Unfortunately, the RCM releases so many coins and so many with small mintages, that the low mintage has become meaningless when it comes to most of their coins. Although I love this coin, I believe it will actually eventually be worth only a bit more than melt.
