Comments about Royal Canadian Mint 1/25 Ounce Pure Gold Coin - Wood Bison (2011):

This was the 2nd coin I bought from this series and I now have all four! The Wood Bison, as per the other coins in this low-mintage series, is a beautiful example of aboriginal art. I bought this coin as both an investment but as important, something I can enjoy for many years.

Comments about Royal Canadian Mint 1/25 Ounce Pure Gold Coin - Wood Bison (2011):

I too find this item very tiny! It is smaller than a dime. I know it is gold and high priced, but my main complaint is the great detail and design of the artwork is completely lost on the coin. It is therefor poorly designed. I reocmmend the cougar gold coin. Or try this in silver instead. And how about an "actual size" image on the website?

For those concerned about the size, I have one question... How big do you think 1/25 of an ounce of pure gold should be?
