                        COEUR D'ALENE MINES CORPORATION

     Coeur d'Alene Mines  Corporation  (the  "Company")  registered  under the
Securities Act of 1933 (the "Act") up to 4,864,179 shares of its common stock,
$1.00 par value per share (the "Shares"),  under its Registration Statement on
Form S-3 (File No.  33-64255),  which was  filed  and  declared  effective  on
November 15, 1995. As more fully discussed in the Prospectus  contained in the
Registration  Statement,  the Company  entered into a Standby  Agreement  (the
"Standby  Agreement")  on November  15,  1995 with UBS  Securities  Inc.  (the
"Standby  Purchaser")  pursuant  to which  the  Standby  Purchaser  agreed  to
purchase  from the Company all of the Shares  which would have been  delivered
upon conversion of those 7% Convertible Subordinated Debentures Due 2002 which
were not duly  surrendered for conversion by the close of business on December
15, on which  date such  Debentures  had been  called  for  redemption  by the
Company.

     Prior to the close of  business on December  15,  1995,  the holders of a
total of  $74,649,000  principal  amount of the  Debentures  surrendered  such
Debentures for conversion  into a total of 4,844,152  Shares.  At the close of
business on December 15, 1995, the $351,000 principal amount of the Debentures
not previously  surrendered  for conversion were redeemed by the Company for a
total redemption price of $375,570, and on December 19, 1995, the Company sold
22,777  Shares to the Standby  Purchaser  pursuant to the terms of the Standby
Agreement.

     In accordance with its  undertaking  included under Item 17 of Part II of
the Registration Statement, the Company hereby removes from registration under
the Act the 4,841,402 Shares that were covered by the  Registration  Statement
but were unissued and unsold at the termination of the offering.
