Very nice coin, I have a missing plating loonie that looks a lot like this, but a bit duller. It could indeed be missing plating.

I would certainly trust SPP... I may be new to this forum, but I have known him by rep for almost a decade from other places.

Speaking of which SPP could you please email me, my mail is in my profile. I have a few coins I would love to send to you for XRF analysis.

Thanks!

The weight of the coin is around 6.35 gram.. Don't know if that's good normal one with parks canada was 6.94 gram


The weight of plating on a loonie (pre-2012) is 0.6 grams, so a missing-plating error would seem most likely to me.

Great find!
