<p>[QUOTE=&quot;onecenter, post: 1270811, member: 8703&quot;]The coins shown, with the medallion in a beautiful green velvet box are the complete set of 10 Calgary Winter Olympic Games silver $20 coins.&nbsp; The Royal Canadian Mint also had the US Mint sell the coins for them directly, in pairs, as they were released.&nbsp; If I remember correctly, the full green box came with the release of coins three and four.&nbsp; The first two coins issued in 1985 came with their own little green velvet box.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>Mintages began at 351,000 coins for the 1985-dated Downhill Skiing&nbsp; and drifted down to 217,000 for the 1987-dated Bobsled.&nbsp; Mintages and the issue price of each coin was Can$37.00, per the 2011 edition of Haxby and Willey&#039;s Coins of Canada.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
