Canada 2017

Redlock:
As we all know Canada will be celebrating its 150th Birthday next year.
The RCM decided to issue special designs on all five circulating denominations for the occasion. There was a competition and here is a link to the five winning designs:

Personally, I don't like the designs for the 5c and the 25c. But they hadn't good choices anyway.
The 10c and the Toonie are okay. The only design I really like is the Loonie.
Well, now lets wait and see how the actual coins will look.

As I understand, the normal designs will not be issued for circulation in 2017, only these. It remains to be seen whether that ''promise'' will hold.

Triggersmob:
Thanks for the link Ralf.
I like the 10c as I never really liked the normal 10c because the boat is very plain.

Humpybong:

I collect the One Dollar and Twenty Five cent coins only.   Have to keep my eyes open for these.

Redlock:
I bit the bullet (after trades fell throught) and bought some of these coins recently:


By the way, the forum refuses to upload a photo of the coloured $2.

Triggersmob:
Nice to see you finally got some of those Canadian coins you have been chasing.
Did you try uploading the coloured $2 in a separate post. Might have been too
many Mb for one post.
