J-Bead New Member Canada 2 Posts	Posted 03/22/2010 3:20 pm Hey everyone, I'm new to this site and I've looked almost everywhere for an answer. So, I am hoping I will find that answer here with your help. So, I bought some gum at a convenience store. And when the guy gave me my change I have what appeared to be a silver dollar in it. I have search the internet high and low to determine what kinda of coin it is, with no luck. Here is the coin. It has some maple leaves on it. It has no value on it It is the size of a loonie I hope these pictures work. Report this Post to the Staff

I have never seen a 2006 dated one, but my guess is they change the die every year. Report this Post to the Staff
