Born in a Year of the Dragon

Earlier in 2012 I bought a coin because I was born in a year of the dragon. Later, I bought a coin for the newest member of our family, born in 2012, which makes her another dragon year baby.

Scratch on the Queen's face

It is not as good looking as it looks on the picture, and my coin has scratch on the Queen's face. I have got the $98 dragon coins a year ago, and they come with boxes for each one. This time, no box, instead the coin is only put into a red pouch... The coins for Chinese often has a HUGE number of mintage, making the coins to be depreciated EASILY. Probably this is the last time for me to buy a Zodiac coin from Royal Canadian Mint, or any other coins that is manufactured so many, just meant to "rob" people's money.

Very nice coin, but lousy presentation in a paper envelope. Charge me $5 more and put it in a nicer cardboard box. Doesn't have to be as nice of a box and plastic holder as my gold Dragon coin, but at least give me an option to upgrade to a box.
