Can anyone confirm the rumuur that the types in the sets are the opposite way- the red on the double outline leaf?I wouldn't describe them as the "opposite" way, but yes, they are enamel painted on the double outline ... it's quite dramatically different than the circulation coins. The mint.ca website does show it, but I'm not sure if it's a mock up. If you keep an eye on ebay, I've seen a number of "MS-66 NBU" Women's Hockey holders for sale.

 Can the little people stand up and be counted too? 14 Red Mens Hockey Quarters Engraved 2 = 11 Raised 2 = 2 Engraved 2 in 2010 set = 1 I believe is the engraved 2, that is set aside the rest of the coins in this great 2010 Special Edition Uncirculated set. Is the case with all of the mint sets?  |

I bought 3 of the colorized Olympic coins and I'm worried I got fakes . the paint looks like finger nail polish it's uneven and sloppy around the edges . how can I tell if they are not fakes ?

They are NOT fakes. The circulation painted ones are really that bad.

One of the best ways is to shine a UV light on the coin. All the colurized coins were sealed with a UV-visible seal. The one on the Men's hockey coin looks like a hockey rink.

That's interesting, I didn't know about the UV thing .The hologram is very cool there are 4 scenes. No wonder the price of the quarter is $4.00 the packaging and marketing is $3.00.
Are all the packaged Men's Hockey have the engraved 2 ?

I picked up a roll last month and I only got 3 coloured coins, all the same (the standard Cindy Coin). It's true the painting is a bit weird, not filling the whole spots. GEEZ, who's getting $4.00 for the coins? I can't sell them on ebay for $2.00 + 3.00 shipping, and I can't sell any of the others either. Too many people are selling them for almost nothing. Devilla |

Has anyone noticed the prices being paid for the special edition set on ebay? Item# 350320167765 - $52.99 Item# 190375092819 - $66.00 I guess being sold out would be a reason but that is a hefty premium |

I came across these quarters by mistake. I have two of the colorized coins with a raised 2 and two with an incused 2
Please correct me if I am wrong but the colorized coin with the raised 2 only had 200,000 coins minted vs 21,800,000 for the colorized incused 2.
Is there much of a difference in what these two coins are valued at?

I've got an older copy of trends but the raised 2 listed at $12 in MS63 compared to $2.50 in MS63 for the incuse/engraved 2.

Thanks Fed
I have done some checking and it looks like MS63 is now around $25 to $30.
Not sure if totally correct but it looks like that's close. Can anyone tell me if getting circulated coins
like these two coins would be worth grading..don't know the cost of grading coins.
