Jp –

You are right. I have never bought a colorized coin before from any Mint. But when I was offered this new polar bear coin by RCM I liked the design & light blue enamel color which their technical people explained was perfected over similar past issues. The color is only at the very bottom of the design. Plus it is the lowest mintage silver 1-oz coin they have issued in awhile & for club members only. It was $88 US & I actually love it! But I doubt it will change my mind too much as far as future purchases go.

Happy collecting Jp!

Seth,
I thought I have read in past blog posts that you did not like these colored coins? I like the quality of the RCM coins, (don’t get me wrong) but I rarely ever buy any because the cost is so out of this world. I have a couple of RCM colorized coins and I found I did not like them as they seem to have a silk screened look to them.

The RCM Master’s Club 2016 exclusive coin #3 that I received yesterday sold out of the 4,000 very low mintage quickly. It is a $20 1-oz fine silver coin with polar bear & cub with blue enamel iceberg & water. Beautiful coin!
