We’ll be there this week, want us to grab you one?

Sure as long as it’s only 25 cent price . They will be popular I’m sure . Kids here will love them too .
The US mint should be considering it too . Fun thing .Oh well if it’s 30.00 , can’t afford that right now . They are so cute though .
This is Canada’s new coin . They are no longer doing the one with the Elk on it . It’s one for used by people as legal tender .
It’d be kinda cool if they were going into circulation but they are kinda like artist edition Windstones; they’re too fancy to be production pieces.
Here’s some of the “limited edition” circulation coins that I have collected recently:(I think these are some of the coins scenceable and foxfeather mentioned)
Oooo, I haven’t seen the Parks Canada quarters yet. Is the top quarter the Orca or Kestrel?
The loonie and twoonie on top of each other are the 100th Anniversary Parks Canada coins and the other is one of the infamous ‘Lucky Loonies” from one of the Olympic years 🙂
Yes, polymer bills are supposed to be more durable and harder to counterfeit, but we already have people figuring out ways to rip them and complaining about it. I figure it’s like when the twoonie came into circulation, some of the middles would pop out (especially in cold climates) and everyone got excited that the coins were ‘defective’ and we should have our old paper bills back. I like the twoonie, you can think you’re broke and then open up your change purse and be rich! 😀
My husband’s a collector, and I got him the circulation twoonie all wrapped up nice and pretty, but they didn’t have that cool loonie! Wants!

The blue quarter is the Orca. I believe that the third quarter in the series is the Kestrel and it has a yellow blob but I have yet to see the bird one.
Perhaps we should start collecting coins nowadays.
Canadian penny are officially ceased circulating in the nation to the north. US coins could be the next. That move has rekindled a debate domestically that has been going on for decades. Collectors should start seeking for Canadian mint and coins for good.Perhaps we should start collecting coins nowadays.

Collectors should start seeking for Canadian mint and coins for good.It’s only worth collecting Canadian mint coins for esthetic value. My father has been collection coins for years and has finally decided to start thinning out the collection. No dealer will pay anywhere near what the coins originally cost. If it is a precious metal coin they will only pay the weight of the coin and nothing for the design, no matter how rare it is. We have been to many, many coin dealers over the years. They are pretty to look at, but one of the worst investments available.
On a side note to Canadians about the new plastic bills; they may be hard to rip, and almost impossible to burn, but they will melt. 🙂 Don’t leave them near radiators or fireplaces.

Aw so sad.. I thought there are lots of antique buyers out there who’s very interested in coin collection.
I know it’s an odd question, but here’s as good a place as any to ask.
I’m Canadian and my husband collects Canadian pennies. He’s missing 2004, 2006, and 2008. If anyone out there has one or all of them, could you please PM me? They’re all he needs to complete his collection.
Thanks.Life is beautiful.

I know. 🙁 The coins are so pretty, but it’s so hard to find people who want the old coins, they all seem to want the newest ones available.
