2014 quarter the beads are right up against the edge of the rim on both sides. I have checked a pile of these 2014 and this is the only one so far. I have seen.   |

Weird. I would love to hear the explanation for that 2014.
Collar error? Die variety?

That does look like a wider rim than usual

My terminology isn't up to snuff so... Looks like the coin is like a retreaded tire.The old tire lost its tread (no reeding),outer rim new tread (new reeding).I also noticed the top of the coins new "tread"is thinner than
the bottom .
I placed a 2014 25cent on a 2014 twoonie,no match. Didn't have a Fifty cent handy.
An interesting coin. Nice find Rocky!

JimmyD I'm not sure that's a legit error. The plating on these MPPS coins can be removed electrochemically.
rocky that toonie is interesting. It looks like it might be a doubled die from the notching, but at the same time looks MD at some places. Maybe start a new thread and ask for the doubled die experts? I'll keep an eye out for another one like it, IF I can find a 2013 toonie in my change.

A scarce error for the series, a 2009 clipped loon dollar.
