Nice looking coin, too bad about the "security features" though.

There was a coin exchange today in Ottawa, at Major Hill Park, as part of Canada Day celebrations. I managed to get half a roll of the new 1812 twoonie. Also, free tours today of the Royal Canadian Mint. They even brought in production people for Canada Day, so we could see stuff happening on the production floor.

Mine look just fine, but then, I paid $2 for a twoonie so I wasn't expecting much. Nice way of convincing yourself and others, and good way to face coins. |

Very nice coin. I tried to order 3 sets and an error message displayed on the web site saying they can't be mailed to the US.

So I ordered mine June23, just 5 days after they came out and got the 'backordered' email. Chalk up another disappointed customer here. How difficult is it for them to not take orders once they run out? Or minimally state when they expect the backorder'ing to be resolved. Sigh.

Don't feel bad - my order day was June 20th. My email saying 'back-ordered' came in on Friday June 29th. Over a week to say "oops we're sorry"

Would a Canadian CCF member be willing to order three 1812 packs for this American member. I'll pay through paypal or other means including shipping and fees to US. I understand letter rate shipping is free to Canadian residents.
Send me PM.
Thanks.

I could probably help - I'm in Sarnia, and often visit Port Huron and could pop them in the mail. But, I've reached my limit of 3. contact me if I can help dcadon at yahoo.com

I got one in circulation the other day too. It was fresh out of a roll! What a beautiful coin!

Got one in circulation today so cancelled my order with the mint. One month wait with no followup on when it might be actually coming seems fair. I agree nice coin!
