In 1910 the Dominion Government decided to add a $1.00 Silver Dollar
to the Specimen Sets.
In 1911 the 3 Specimens were struck. For some reason the Government changed their minds (what else is new, even back then) and they decided against issuing the Silver Dollars.
The tools for the obverse did not go to waste as they were used on the 1936 Silver Dollar.

Actually it's a twelve sided nickel.
This nickel was used from 1942 to 1962
when it was reverted back to a round nickel.
It's original purpose was to avoid confusion between the copper penny
and the tombac nickel which was introduced in 1942. Tombac tarnished to
a brown colour making it look similar to the penny.
