Is it just me but does the cougar on the new Canadian coin look like it was the winner in a kindergarten art contest?

no that is a platinum coin, which I think looks great, not sure how to post pics here, but they have the 1 oz cougar on apmex, and Franklin, the op, is right, this coin is horrible, the legs look like they are from a T-rex, and the worst part is the wolf, and grizzly were amazing, and then this coin, hopefully #4 is alot better

You talking about the standard one ounce bullion with the open mouthed cat kinda jumping out towards you? It is a little goofy, but I like it.

Cmon, it's not that bad! I actually like it and love the rest in the series so far. If anyone really doesn't like it you can PM me and I'll give you around melt!

The cougar is fairly ugly.

I would say they are raptor legs... T-rex was much bigger. I think the Liger is next in the series followed by the ferocious unicorn with frog legs.

It looks like it is standing upright. Is it a native hunter wearing a skin??

That is exactly what I thought. It's just not a great coin, mainly because it's forearms look so weird. That platinum coin is awesome- they should have used that for the silver design. I did buy a few just to keep my sets going, but I haven't bought any extras like I did with the wolf and grizzly. Overall it's still a great series. Does anyone know what the next in the series will be?
