If I could vote for one, it would be the snowy owl. Pretty uncommon, a bird of prey that's not an eagle, and a beautiful animal. If any neighbors to the north are listening: Snowy Owl! lol. Might not go over too well though..... half my family (from the south), believes owls are bad luck!
From what i know, they already did a snowy owl set of some kind, and the same with the wolf they brought it back, so maybe they will bring it back
I'd vote for the lynx. BUT, on the other hand, have you ever just sat back on a bank and watched a beaver? (Hidden of course..) They are actually fascinating to watch. Really fascinating. Makes me appreciate the ones on the coins much more. My two cents.. Lucy

I just ordered the grizzly for 40 bucks they of course tried to get me to buy more stuff ...a 25 dollar 1986 eagle...just didn't have the funds
Got my Grizz in today! If I grade the wolf design a A-, I would have to give the Grizz a B-. Don't get me wrong, the Grizzly is awesome, but it is just too large an animal to fit on a coin with significant detail..... I would have liked to have seen a closeup of the bear's face maybe.... A great series though, and I'm happy to collect them! Can't wait for the next one!
Just picked up two of these today, makes a nice change from the standard Maple Leaf plus the dealer sold them for the same price as the regular Leafs.
Just grabbed both of these today. Thanks Dan! The phone number for the grizzly goes directly to Universal Coin and Bullion (or more direct is 409-866-4112). The phone number for the wolf goes to their answering service which they said takes 3-4 weeks to deliver, but the guy on the main line said 2-3 days which I found surprising. However, I didn't get a confirmation number from the main line like I did from the answering service. The guy said he would call me back when it ships, but I haven't heard back as of yet. Crossing my fingers they get here OK. He also said they are having bets over there whether the next coin will be a moose or a salmon which I don't think has been mentioned yet. I would love to see a salmon round!
No problem! I'm crossing my fingers too for a few of my orders. (I've actually already received 2 other orders). But since the grizzly offer doesn't expire for another month I think ill wait a week or 2 and then order.
I received my grizzly from UCB it took i think 4 days total...it came in a round plastic container...nice coin for 40 bucks, today apmex has it for 51 and change
