Canada $20 for $20 series
April 01, 2013, 12:18:11 AM
Is anyone else collecting the Canadian $20 for $20 series?

Coins are sold at face value $20 and each coin is struck in 99.99% pure silver with a weight of 7.96 grams. This yields silver content of 0.256 troy ounces.

2011   Maple Leaf
2011   Canoe
2012   Polar Bear
2012   Queen's Jubilee
2012   Farewell to the Penny
2012   Reindeer
2013   Hockey
2013   Timber Wolf

The 2011 Maple Leaf issue had 200,000 released while the others had 250,000 released.

After a bit of work, I found a source who is able to get me all of the releases at face value, except for the first year.

I wish our Perth mint did something like this,
instead of $1 for $120.  :)

Hmmm. '2012-Queen's Jubilee'.......evidently, that's a 2 headed coin.

The two coins I need are on their way to me.

I will have all of them for short period of time, since there is another one in the series coming out soon.

Final two coins arrived, so I have a complete set until the next coin comes out which I believe is in July.

Another very nice coin.
Have you decided if you are going to start on the $100 for $100 coins?

Not going for the $100 for $100 at this moment in time mainly because import & customs duty would drive up the price too much for me.

I like the iceberg coin, Santa looks a bit creepy.
