2003 Loon Dollar Question

Wow, I did not know that! Thanks for the lesson.


I went through my dollar listings on ebay, wildflower, can you please let me know if this is PL. By going off what you said about the wide rims, it now looks like I made a mistake when posting this 2005 $1.

To get slightly off topic here, is there differences between NBU and business strike for all denominations?

This is what I was looking for and what prompted me to take a second look.

So it would seem that the change from Ottawa to Winnipeg mint in 2011 resulted in coin in uncirculated sets no longer being distinguishable from business strikes because both came from exactly the same bucket. What was specifically was different prior at the Ottawa mint, I still do not totally understand.

But I do strongly agree that this is a topic of great confusion especially for younger collectors just starting out, including the inconsistencies of reference terms that mean exactly the same as "PL".
