Royal Canadian Mint Coins Near Sellout

The Royal Canadian Mint has just released a message that the Mallard Coins are 86% sold out.  

What are the Mallard Coins?  They are the first in a three coin series on ducks.  These coins were issued in two styles, fine silver, sold out immediately, and base metal, about to sell out.

The fine silver coins show a pair of mallards in profile, while the base metal coins showthe ducks face on.  These coins have distinct images.

We tried to obtain silver coins, but just a few days after release we were unable to get any.  I called the mint and was told they were all gone.

Both versions are great as numismatic coins.
