Quote: Will we get the new offerings for the June release with him newly crowned? You are probably right. I am having hot and cold feelings about the June releases. On one hand, I will enjoy the effigy change and new look for all the Canadian coins I collect. It IS too bad that Charles will be the new effigy (I'd much rather see Princess Catherine  ). On the other hand, between the coins I get from both the US Mint and the RCM, I've been able to purchase everything and am able to pay my credit cards in full each month, but I'm worried that next month's totals might be a doozey.  I am buying the Specimen Set from the May listing.

what time zone are you in Canada? I am in Ontario and diamond as well; however, you are able to post the new releases way before I get my 7 day advance notice after midnight.

I am in the Pacific time zone... I think the delivery of the advance notices is inconsistent... there have been times when I find out about a new release from this forum, up to a day before the email from my rep and then there are times such as this month when I got the email on Monday at 2:30PM PT (5:30PM ET). I was fortunately at my desk and had a spare 5 minutes to start this thread. I know that release day is usually Tuesday so I wasn't expecting this until I got to my desk yesterday to honour the 7 day advance notice but there it was 7.5 days early... I have also received updates at 9:30PM on the Monday (after midnight ET) but as I say.. it is inconsistent.

The delivery of the advance notice is likely dependent on your rep.. I have the same rep for 10 years now and he always send it slightly after midnight Eastern time which 9:00 pm in BC where I live.

I was actually surprised to receive my printed catalog in the US already earlier this week.

What time do these go on sale for the general public, is it like 9 AM EST or something like or just random?

They showed up this morning in an email and online. I am only a gold member of the Masters Club, so there was likely a delay. I have ordered the 2023 Specimen Set and the 2022 Collector's Book. I would suspect the general public will see them on Tuesday, as a gold member gets a four day advance notice.

According to TSC, there will be The Coin Show on Saturday May 6 starting at 7 pm. So RCM is expected to reveal coronation coins on that day.

$2 Pure Silver Coin - Tribute: W Mint Mark - Polar BearHas been released to public. I think it nice looking coin. This is subscription that I would be interested in 10 years ago. But not now - simply overfed with RCM releases. I might buy Coat of Arms only Update:If RCM were smart and included 1c to that subscription with the Case for 7 coins - I would buy all.

Quote: $2 Pure Silver Coin - Tribute: W Mint Mark - Polar Bear Definitely an interesting take re: the coin's use of the Specimen finish!
