Are they going to be doing a different speciman Toonie every year now, do you think.

Check it out, a twonie is up to 50.55 already, more than the complete set.

Bambiiiiiii!
It's missing the crosshairs.
(Off-topic: I dreamt I was at a coin show and Don Cheadle, filling in for someone, tried to sell me a raw specimen twoonie. It was confusing for sure.)

The lynx was nice because there was a chance of getting a mule as well...
Rest in Peace

This gimmicky stuff sometimes starts big, but 90% of the time is less than issue price within 5 years of issue. The big moneymaker? The gubmint.

Yes, seems clear they are going to offer a special Loonie and special Toonie specimen set, going forward. At least that allows the specimen collector to be able to obtain the normal designs in specimen too.
