nalaberong Pillar of the Community Canada 2805 Posts	Posted 10/06/2013 7:55 pm Yes. My old-style 2012 loonie is an endangered species (and as far as I know, the only circulated example anywhere...). It is also getting much harder to find coins from the 20th century in any denomination. I'm sad, but it's good that our government is taking steps to save money where it can.

I don't recall ever seeing that before; I assume it means the price is rising rapidly. Report this Post to the Staff
