Silver For The People - The Forums

The Royal Canadian Mint has started accepting pre-orders for another batch of new product releases. At this time, the products can only be pre-ordered by Masters Club members, with shipping to begin on May 28, 2012. A number of high precious metals content coins with extremely low mintage are included.



A .9999 fine 5 oz. silver coin will be issued to mark the 100th anniversary of the Calgary Stampede. The mintage of this coin is limited to just 1,500 coins. Pricing is set at $495.95 CAD.



The Royal Canadian Mint will release its first 5 kilogram silver coin featuring ‘The Spirit of Haida Gwaii’ This coin has a diameter of 180 mm and contains 5 kilograms of .9999 pure silver. The mintage is limited to just 100 pieces worldwide, and the coin is shown as “sold out” on the pre-order page.

Remember these coins are for Master Club Members first, then to the public. Some of you may like the low mintage on these coins. Enjoy!

that 5kg coin looks good, the stampede coin is so-so

Not a fan of the Calgary stampede coin - as a former Albertan I think it doesn't reflect the feeling of the stampede IMO.

The 5 kg coin is nice - too bad that even as a Master Club member you didn't get a shot to pick one up.
