matchbox Pillar of the Community United States 1007 Posts	Posted 02/11/2011 2:44 pm I have the 1987 Voyageur dollar. Bought a proof-like beauty off ebay for 99 cents +$3 shipping. But then again I was in the right place at the right time. Here's a scan. The Voyageur dollars are my favorite Canadian coin. Report this Post to the Staff

realpenny Valued Member 423 Posts	Posted 02/12/2011 01:45 am Nice, coin and design. It was only available as a PL. The RCM lost the dies and the loony was born. See here for a little more info about the dies: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canadi..._dollar_coin Edited by realpenny 02/12/2011 02:13 am Report this Post to the Staff
yotie Pillar of the Community United States 3077 Posts	Posted 02/12/2011 06:40 am wonder if they ever found the dies? and why did they already have a new design ready? Report this Post to the Staff
Meldude Valued Member Canada 162 Posts	Posted 02/13/2011 9:06 pm The design probably was meant for another coin, probably a commemorative. The dies were not recovered from what I could find. Report this Post to the Staff
