What can we expect - 2010 Silver Maple Leaf Coins?

I was just sitting around looking at the calendar and realized that there are only a few months left in 2009. That got me wondering, what can we expect for "special" silver maple leaf coins in 2010? We have already seen all of the Olympic special issue maple leaf coins and the Chinese zodiac privy mark collection ended in 2009 with the final release, the Ox. Every year since 1998 there has been a privy mark coin and I am assuming 2010 will be no exception. My first bet would be a privy mark of the Olympic Rings, since the Royal Canadian Mint is releasing so many Olympic themed coins. Also, it is the 40th anniversary of Earth Day, 200th anniversary of Chopin's birthday and 100th anniversary of the Boy Scouts. Who knows those might make it also.

Another thing we haven't seen in a while is a special edition maple leaf other than the Olympics ones. The holograms and colours maples haven't had a new member since 2007, so maybe we will see something knew in those fronts.

If you have any information or ideas leave a comment and let me know!
