I'm hoping there's going to be some kind of Mint design contest for our 2017 sesquicentennial. If so, I'll be ready (always plan ahead?!). Here's the loonie design I've been kicking around for a while:   Well, I thought it was nice. Besides, if they'll let July 1999 through, mine's got to have a chance... |

The loon added to the old voyageur style? Cool idea! |

I dig it... how many varieties of that year you going to make? Take out a few water lines here and there. Hehe...really do dig it. Nice amalgamation of the 2 styles would be cool. |

Maybe the canoeists could be sitting on the loon's back?

I'd like to see the bird turn and look at the person holding the coin with a face that says "you lookin' at me?"

Actually you should just send it anyways and request a change to the dollar?

Amazing design! Incorporates the best of both. Lets hope if RCM actually uses it that they don't lose the dies on the way to the mint this time  |

wow!!
As one of the few people on this forum that truly love the loon,
That is an amazing concept.
I sure hope the mint rep or someone from the mint reads this post.
Thank you for the fantastic idea.

It looks like the guy in the front of the boat is holding a shotgun and is thinking of having that loon for lunch.  Hey, nalaberong maybe you could come up with something with the same two guys hunting a polar bear for a newer design for the twoonie.  |
