I lived in that area for 4 years. I used to walk my dog on Island View Beach... I always thought Sidney was the perfect town to retire in, and open a coin shop!!

Bought a roll of the 2012 non magnetic cents today.
A last week got the 1890H and 189h large cents. (just 3 to go!)
collector67, that's a nice looking 1946!

Always nice to put a face to a name or handle. Steve and SPP surprised your paths haven't crossed same field of work SPP finds it and Steve mines it. That's my other hobby placer mining. Thinking I'll have to name my cent and list it for an outrageous price  and retire, or.... perhaps list it at auction for naming rights first then sell it.

=> that's a very pretty "Silver Loonie" ...
... I have the bronze version from the 1997 Oh Canada Set, but I don't have one of those "Silver" winners (nice coin)
Hey, how many were minted and what number is yours?
