The Royal Canadian Mint has just released their new Looney Tunes™ Collector Coins, and I managed to snag one fresh off the press to give away! It’s the “Merrie Melodies” 1 oz fine silver coin, valued at $109.95 CAD.
But before we dive into the giveaway, here’s a bit more about these exciting new coins:
Here’s a sneak peek from their press release:
The Royal Canadian Mint, in collaboration with Warner Bros. Consumer Products, is bringing out our inner child with a series of gold and silver collector coins featuring the beloved Looney Tunes™ characters. This celebrates the 75th anniversary of Bugs Bunny.
Throughout 2015, several Looney Tunes™ collector coins will be available, each with its own unique technology, special offers, and packaging. Here’s what you can purchase starting today:
Each coin is part of a limited mintage and can be ordered directly from the Mint by calling 1-800-267-1871 in Canada, 1-800-268-6468 in the U.S., or visiting www.mint.ca/looneytunes online. They are also available at the Royal Canadian Mint’s boutiques in Ottawa, Winnipeg, and Vancouver, and through a network of dealers and participating Canada Post outlets.
1 oz Fine Silver Coloured Coin Looney Tunes™ Merrie Melodies:
– Main packaging for these collector coins
– Acme wooden box packaging
– Merry Melodies 1 oz silver collector coin – reverse
– Merry Melodies 1 oz collector coin – obverse (the smudges are on the plastic, not the coin!)
Now, if you’d like a chance to win this 1 oz. Merry Melodies collector coin, worth $109.95 and containing at least $17.00 worth of silver, just answer this question in the comments:
Who was your favorite Looney Tunes character growing up?
Mine was Marvin the Martian, hands down. He’s actually featured in the eight-coin 1/2 oz silver subscription. Personally, I prefer coins that are over a century old with natural toning, but these are pretty cool, too!

Good luck, everyone! A big thank you to the Royal Canadian Mint for making this giveaway possible. It’s just the push I needed to start blogging more regularly again!
UPDATE: The giveaway has ended. Congratulations to the winner, Jean Pierre!
