Big smiles at Royal Canadian Mint today..................

......after getting it in the neck for years about milk spots, and having Perth Mint rammed down their throat as being the bestest mint in the whole wide universe, this happens

Goddards anyone?

It's not the first time PM coins have spotted, but it sure is massively less likely.

It's possible that it's caused by terrible storage conditions, rather than standard procedure like the RCM bullion.

do 1 kg coins come capsuled from the mint?

 

if so I don't buy the bad storage idea, especially as

being 2015 it can't have been stored for long. also

we have yet to see if others stored in similar conditions

show similar problems.

Yes they do come capsuled( BU's) HH also the proofs come sealed in plastic and then you put them in the capsule yourself if you wish

This is the first year EVER, that I heard of proof libertads with spots , 2014 2oz. Proofs .

[BaldyBob]

Still cheaper per oz for a 1 KG 2015 Kook than a kilo of Maples from a well known site (which I won't name in case they are accused of running the forum.)

 

So.....as a stacker, wouldn't be too fussed.

Perth Mint are still pretty cool, and RCM suck. Milk spots are always a risk with any mint, but only RCM can guarantee them.

Some one at the mint with sticky fingers and no gloves?

[Cointreau]

Hey! Aren't we due an unveiling of Keithoil's tube of maples?

Have you all forgotten about that?

Dave..now you have me worried, as I am waiting for my 2 oz proof Libertad to arrive from Mexico! Will let you know what shape its in.

That's right! Maybe we have to wait for him to get home again though, I don't know.
