Glow In The Dark Quarter

And no I'm not claiming that #1 lines up with #1. Just saying that the COAs would probably be issued roughly sequentially and assigned to whichever coins are in the latest production batch. I don't see any reason that the COAs would be printed in random order.

Can't say I ever noticed any of my coins having a COA number higher than the issued mintage. But then it's not something I've ever specifically looked for either.

My understanding is that the minted coins are first placed into multi-coin trays. When a predetermined number of trays are full, the coins are moved to a separate packaging area for encapsulation and outer packaging; it's a batched, multi-step process. The coins are not necessarily packaged in the order in which they were struck. So, there isn't necessarily a correlation between strike order and a coin's serialized/numbered COA.

I believe the use of this type of process by the RCM is supported by the fact that numerous collectors have reported (here and elsewhere) that they have COAs with a serial number that is higher than the reported mintage for a coin.

Please note that I'm reporting what I've been told, but as I haven't personally seen the process I can't guarantee I'm 100% accurate.

Leave in a bright place for 30 min then try. If you have a super bright flash light it only takes a few seconds to charge it. I used a 5000 lumen flash light for 30 seconds and got the effect to work in daylight.

Oh...maybe that's the error
RCM forgot to put in print 'Batteries Not Included'

Hey, my coin arrived from Australia ... yah, I realize that paying close to $75 (delivered) is way too much to pay for a coin ... but on the other hand, there is too much trash-talk going on, so I really had to at least own one of these babies!! (good investment, or bad ... this glow in the dark dino-coin has ruffled a lot o' feathers, so I just wanted to be part of the hoopla!!)



... as always, when I get a new coin in it's nice little leather clam-shell => I always think that it's pretty cool (kinda sad, ain't it?)




=> coins Rock!!

The RCM reduced the radiation level by about 50% - but this is still a concern, according to officials in many cities in Canada and in the US.

"Children may experience fatal coin encephalopathy or high circulation coin concentrations in US/Canadian babies, but approximately 25% still live in housing with deteriorated and old silver coin exposure with resulting cognitive impairment and other sequelae. Evidence continues to accrue that commonly encountered NCLT concentrations, even those less than 10 μg/dL, may impair cognition, and there is no threshold yet identified for this effect. Most US and Canadian children are at sufficient risk that they should have their pocket change concentration measured at least once."

So these coins do contain radioactive material. Where did you read that?
