<p>[QUOTE=&quot;treehugger, post: 1510377, member: 28451&quot;]Yes, the Cougar and the Moose are still selling at basically common-date ASE prices.&nbsp; I think the reasons for this are:</p><p><br /></p><p>1. The Cougar design was a disappointment and some collectors lost interest in the series.&nbsp; The Moose was better however.</p><p><br /></p><p>2. The production quality of the coins is very lacking and the Canadian Mint has apparently done nothing to improve the spotting issue.&nbsp; This also has diminished interest in the series.&nbsp; For basically the same premium, I would much rather have the silver ASE, the Mexican Libertad or the Australian Kookaburra, as I find a far less number of spotted coins with them.&nbsp; In my opinion, they are much nicer coins.&nbsp; It&#039;s just too bad the Canadian Mint can&#039;t get their act together and take care of this. By contrast, a lot of their other coins are very well done.</p><p><br /></p><p>3. Reality has set in and people have realized 1 million coins does not a rarity make.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>Although I&#039;m not a super fan of these anymore, I think they are worth owning for those who like the designs.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
