the Royal Canadian Mint is making way too many coins. Most of them don’t even have pictures to do with Canada on them like 1 has a picture a of Santa Clause on it, another is shaped like a playing Card, there are about 40 different olympics quarters, Hockey team symbols, about 50 different olympic dollar coins, a 20dollar coin with a picture of sharks on it, most of them are not even being circulated and have to be purchased off the Mint. My point is they are making way too many and making it imposable for a Collect to get them all, especially since they are not all being circulated. any thoughts on the subject?
take a look:

Here are 3 very interesting and very distrurbing charts
The US dollar vs the Chinese Yuan — One US dollar buys about 7 Yuans — but dips 3 times in April to nothing and once in May — 4 DROPS to almost zero
http://ca.finance.yahoo.com/currency/convert?from=USD&to=CNY&amt=1&t=3m
And the Canadian dollar does the same thing
http://ca.finance.yahoo.com/currency/convert?from=CAD&to=CNY&amt=1&t=3m From 1 Cdn dollar buying 5 Yuans to almost zero —4 times
And the Euro does the same thing during the same time frames as the US and Canadian dollars

I am planning to buy a 24 karat gold coin from bullion direct. This is the first time i am buying a gold coin. I am seeing both Austrian Philharmonic and Canadian Maple as 24 karat, but former is cheaper that later. Do anybody know the reason? Both are 1 oz and same weight & quality. Can i buy Austrian than Canadian?
