lyradnoj Pillar of the Community Canada 548 Posts	Posted 04/05/2014 02:16 am I believe they came out of the PL sets produced by the Winnipeg branch of the Mint and for some reason they had a W stamp. Report this Post to the Staff

middross Pillar of the Community Canada 695 Posts	Posted 04/05/2014 09:29 am P was used to designate plated steel (magnetic) since 1999 when the mint released 20,000 test sets. Report this Post to the Staff
