Spring has sprung, and the warmth is finally spreading. With it comes a little extra love from the Royal Canadian Mint, featuring a whole cadre of new coins on ever-popular topics! It's been since early January, the dead of winter, since the last release of commemorative Canadian coins and sets, so this spate is long overdue. Enjoy! New Spring Releases from Canada  From rolls, to sets, to color, to gold, there's definitely something here for everyone!Let's start with some extremely affordable releases: • Roll collectors will love the latest, low-mintage 50¢ Coat of Arms Mint-Wrapped Roll! • A new Dinosaur, the carnivorous Daspletosaurus (T-Rex's meaner relative), with the Mint's lenticular technology. • A Special Edition Specimen Set (the first in a decade!) featuring Baby Lynx Cubs. Mintage limit is only 15,000, and it has not one, but two, special specimen-finish coins, so don't wait! - Lynx 4-Coin Pure Silver Proof Set also available! • The next Colorful Birds of Canada Crown-Size Quarter, a Goldfinch - back after a two year hiatus! For gold bugs, we've got two fascinating Gold Proofs at opposite ends of the price spectrum: • RCMP Mountie 1/25 Ounce Pure Gold Proof, latest in the Smallest Gold series from Canada! • The Prairie Crocus, the next entry in the $350 Gold Series of .99999 (five 9s) Pure Gold Proofs, the purest gold coins on the planet! And don't forget the only Silver Coin in this set of releases - the Water Lily Crystal Dewdrops!

2010 Colorful Birds - American Goldfinch Crown-Sized 25 Cents Color
|
||
Colorful Birds return with Goldfinch!
One of the questions we've heard most often in the last year or so is "Will the mint be doing any more of the Colorful Birds quarters?" You asked, and the mint listened - happily, we can now answer in the affirmative, as the fifth in this popular series has just been announced! A cheerful chirping song coming from a tree or shrubbery may help you to spot an American Goldfinch. The bright, canary-yellow of the black-capped male will stand out against the landscape, while the more olive-hued female will likely be overlooked. With the lowest mintage in the entire Colorful Birds of Canada series (just 14,000!), the American Goldfinch looks like a real winner. Why not tame your own fine feathered friend today with this beautiful colored coin? |

Special 2010 Specimen Set with Unique Lynx Kittens $2 Coin
|
||
 Special Edition Lynx Specimen SetCertain to Sell Out! Get it while you can! This Special Edition 7-Coin Specimen Set offers several unique opportunities - some obvious, some less so: • The bimetallic $2 coin features a pair of baby lynx kittens or cubs, instead of a polar bear. • The $1 common loon "loonie" design is issued with a specimen finish for the first time 2003! • Each of the above coins is available in this Special Edition Set (and nowhere else!). • The mintage limit is only 15,000, a tiny number by any standards, even when compared with the regular edition annual specimen set - which sells out at the Mint each and every year! This is the first time since the year 2000 that the Mint has issued more than one Specimen Set in a given year - a period of a full decade! The Lynx is sometimes confused with the bobcat, but when one knows the differences, distinguishing between the two is easy. With its long, thick fur, prominent cheek ruffs, a short, black-tipped tail and oversize paws, it is perfectly adapted for winter in northern climes.  We feel that the $1 specimen finish loonie is the real hidden gem or sleeper here - all $1 and loon collectors need this coin, and 15,000 is far too few to satisfy demand! A quick sell out is expected - don't say we didn't warn you!   2005 4-Coin Lynx Silver Proof SetIn addition to the new Lynx Specimen Set, we have just a handful of these beautiful 4-coin Silver Proof Sets from 2005. This handsomely presented collection contains four different, large coins, each depicting a different scene in the natural history of the Canadian lynx, the elegant wild feline of North America. With four different sizes and denominations, ranging from $2 to $5, this wildlife set is a beautiful way to show your affection for these threatened cats. |

|
This lily pad hosts a delicate blossom and a three perfect crystal dewdrops!
This beautiful new coin has everything you could want. What's not to like?
• The mint's exquisite, proprietary colorization process! • A high face value (denomination) - 20 dollars! • A full proof finish, in which the mirrored background cleverly serves as the pond in which the water lily rests! • First Canadian coin with color and more than one Swarovski Crystal! • And of course the very low mintage of 10,000!  All
previous Swarovski Crystal coins have sold out extremely quickly, and this is the
only silver coin amongst the new issues to be announced by the Royal Canadian Mint.For more details about the coin and the cultural significance of the Lotus Flower (to Native Americans, the ancient Egyptians, and Claude Monet, amongst others), please visit our web site here! Because of its low mintage limit and uniqueness within the Swarovski Crystal Flora Series, we believe that this coin will sell out quickly. Don't delay on this one, or you will regret it later! We have a limited number of the previous Swarovski Crystal Flora coins in stock:

2010 Mountie 50 Cents 1/25 Ounce Pure Gold Proof
|
||
 Royal Canadian Mounted Police GoldHere's one guy the criminals don't want to cross, and with good reason - the Mountie "always gets his man", as the old saying goes! Along with the beaver and the maple leaf, the Mountie is considered one of the three national icons of Canada! So it's understandable why we're so pleased to be able to bring you this amazingly beautiful, amazingly affordable small gold proof featuring a Royal Canadian Mounted Police officer on horseback! The "smallest gold" issues have been best sellers year after year. This is the seventh in the smallest gold coin series issued by the Royal Canadian Mint. Previous issues have sold out and can be hard to find, but this year's edition, the Mountie, has the lowest mintage of the series! With only 14,000 worldwide, we expect this 99.99% pure 1/25 ounce gold coin, featuring the iconic Royal Canadian Mounted Police, to sell out. |
