Comments about Royal Canadian Mint 1/25-Oz Gold Coin - Geese (2011):

My first coin in this collection. Nicely deailed, great to look at. My son will appreciate this work of art when he's older. Low mintage, reasonable price given gold content. I was surprised at how small it was when I received it. But I think other Gold coins are about that size too. Other than that, highly recommended for Gold collectors!!

Comments about Royal Canadian Mint 1/25-Oz Gold Coin - Geese (2011):

This coin originally wasn't high on my want list as it seemed such a common subject, and without any signicant difference from other geese related coins. But once I saw it first hand, I changed my mind. The website picture doesn't do justice to the richness of the gold, nor really exhibit how amazing the detailing is on such a small coin. If you are on the fence about purchasing this coin, do yourself a favour. Find a fellow collector who already owns this coin, or check it out at your post office and/or coin shop, then decide. This a nice under-stated coin.

Comments about Royal Canadian Mint 1/25-Oz Gold Coin - Geese (2011):

Great coin all around. Don't understand why people complain about it's size. It has always been this size in the series and the mint lists it's size. Anyway, this coin like most others have said is well done and looks great. Great coin for keeping this series going strong.

Comments about Royal Canadian Mint 1/25-Oz Gold Coin - Geese (2011):

The real size should be clearly dispayed on line. This is a pretty coin but tiny, much smaller a thinner then a penny. I was very surprised.
