Note:
1) The penny in the museum is the very last penny ever MADE (not DISTRIBUTED).
2) #20000 special wrap roll is the very last penny roll ever DISTRIBUTED (not MADE).
Plese check dictionary for the difference between MADE and DISTRIBUTED !

last
1 [last, lahst] Show IPA
adjective a superl. of late with later as compar.
1.
occurring or coming after all others, as in time, order, or place: the last line on a page.
2.
most recent; next before the present; latest: last week; last Friday.
3.
being the only one remaining: my last dollar; the last outpost; a last chance.
4.
final: in his last hours.
5.
ultimate or conclusive; definitive: the last word in the argument. If pennies were distributed after you received your roll, your roll was not the last one. The Mint distributed 2012 rolls into 2013, there for and in conclusion you did not buy anything more than a sticker with a number on it warped around some pennies. I will never begrudge anybody from wasting their money, but you can not convince me that there is anything special about these rolls of pennies. |

My penny roll from the mint was shipped weeks after the #20000 roll was sold on ebay. Therefore my roll was DISTRIBUTED later. Please send me $7000.  Edited by CC-Ottawa

Say whatever you want to say, market is market, you can not stop some guy spending over quarter million dollars for a 1936 canadian penny. And one more thing, collection is not only about rarity also about historic meaning. Some people treats sticker on the roll as nothing, then, you also can treat the mintage published by RCM as nothing as well. Then, you will have your own conclusion: "I can NOT trust RCM anything !".

Last word, according to #19997 final ebay auction price ($3,275), #20000 definitely has over $10,000 value already. |

Not talking about the market or anything else, just pointing out that your dictionary's definition of 'distributed' is apparently flawed. Could not care less how other people spend their money.  |

Quote:Some people treats sticker on the roll as nothing, then, you also can treat the mintage published by RCM as nothing as well. Then, you will have your own conclusion: "I can NOT trust RCM anything !". Life is not all or nothing. This is the same logic religious fanatics use; if the first book of the bible is fiction then the entire book is fictional, there for it is all true. You can trust the mint that their circulation numbers are correct to within human error. You can also trust that a roll marked 10,000 of 10,000 is part of a sequence of rolls produced. The number does not signify the manufacturing or production order but simply as belonging to the group issued. Using this logic your roll is worth no more than any other roll issued. You have assigned your own significance to this roll that was never intended by the mint. There fore your logic and reality are flawed. I don't blame you for thinking this way, the mint misled everybody. They stated: Quote:
Own a piece of history! In this unique venture, we are offering the last one million Canadian 1-cent pieces ever distributed to Canadians in 50-cent rolls. Then they went on to distribute pennies for another six months after selling these rolls. To be the last, they must come last. Unfortunately this was nothing more than good marketing to sell pennies at a ridiculous price. |

Hey Guys,
I don't come over to the NCLT forums that often... but a word of advice if you havent been following other Candadian forum...
I have been slapped on the wrist by Admin for name calling... in his admonitions he stated that the "Canadian forums are most troublesome" that we cause "80% of the problems" and that they "were going to clean things up..."
If you don't want to get kicked off best cool it on the name calling I guess...
Take care, and Have a Great Weekend!
