Now that I got that out of my system...this really is a cool thread. I had no idea there were so many out there. Enjoyed going back from the start and looking at all of them. When seeing the thread was started with a Beatrix Potter coin series from The Royal Mint, of coure the Peter Rabbit coin would be shown. I actually have a good friend I have known for 20+ years whose name is Peter Abbot. I learned early on to pause between his first and last names when introducing him. One of my favorite coin hunting memories as a kid was, in frequent trips across the border, looking for a 1967 rabbit nickel in Canada (lived close to the border). I never found one though. Then in Y2k I finally got one in a roll from a bank in Niagara Falls. When the 2017 Canadian 1967 centennial commemorative silver proof set was issued, a silver nickel was in the set. I had to have a silver rabbit . Sorry these pics are not of mine (mine does not have a fingerprint on the OBV!), but taken from online and I added the specs.

Looks like a proof-like rabbit. : )   Just for fun: What's a rabbit's favorite coin? Any coin made of 24 carrot gold!

Very nice example. Hey RCM...how about alternating between this and beaver every other year? It would make a cool looking collection. Maybe throw in some multi-sided and tombac ones as well every once in awhile to make variety akin to the King Geo VI series.
