Any restrictions on the mint producing the 2023 coins into 2024? I know the mints sets, etc are not set to be distributed until 2024.

This old body would not have been able to stand in line like that. It appears I will have to wait for my uncirculated sets to arrive in 2024.

 I would have loved going to a coin exchange, but Winnipeg or Ottawa is WAY too long a drive from Detroit. I wish the RCM could come down to lower Ontario sometime. I'd prefer Windsor but I'd drive out as far as London or Kitchener if needed. I've got a lot of 'junk' Canadian coins I'd love to swap out but for now I'm stuck with them. I used to use coinage to pay for crossing the tunnel every time I visited Canada, but the border crossings don't except coins or paper money anymore; just plastic.

Does anybody know the mintages of the 2023 dated coins with Charles III? My LCS thinks that the numbers will be low due to only starting in mid-November.

Just amazing people would wait in line for an exchange when a few weeks these coins will become circulating, the RCM use to use kind of nice pouches in previous events. It"s just a normal process for the new King to approve an effigy, this only took a few months

Firstly, it's way too soon to know the mintage. You have to wait until the RCM's 2023 annual report is published. Then, we might have an idea. Secondly, you would be amazed by how many circulation coins can be minted per minute/per hour by the (new) machines.

I doubt the RCM will ever really tell us. The RCM has been doing this convoluted thing of showing mintages that are anything but specific; I believe mintages published (and I could be wrong here) are for coins minted or distributed during the calendar year - not year shown on the coin. This means that "2023" coins could have a stamped year from one or more prior. As another example, I would wager the 'black' toonie has a LOT higher mintage than most people realize; These were still being minted when I was at the Winnipeg mint in late summer 2023 - I can just about guarantee that those will be included in the "2023" mintages. Sorry to be so cynical.

Quote: I believe mintages published (and I could be wrong here) are for coins minted [...] during the calendar year - not year shown on the coin. Correct. The number of coins minted during the year (Jan. 1 till Dec. 31) are reported. Not the year shown on the coins. The RCM used to publish these figures but sadly stopped doing so a couple of years ago.
