Good to hear from you again upc239. Too bad we "Hab" to stay indoors this spring. .

I doubled up on that Born in 2020 on SilverDon. So I will post this one. Can't believe I didn't post them here, but I started the bin after I posted these somewhere else I guess.

Some loonies I picked up recently. I collect MS, Proof and Specimen only (for now). I really like the Great Grey Owl.

MacMurph. Nice coins. The Owl is a favorite of mine too. Thanks for sharing.

@loonielewy, very nice! Do you have the complete set of all the lucky loonies?

OT - For those using the Lighthouse coin trays, has anyone found a coin tray that properly fits these 26.5mm loonies that are encapsulated in the ORIGINAL RCM capsules?

Not yet. I'm missing the '10, '14 and '16. The '14 rubs me because it's just a repeat of the '12. The '10 doesn't have a loon. The '16 will be next. Too bad it's the last in the series.

I miss my LCS. . He always found me these for a good price.

Time for another bump.This one is from a BU set and looks like this loon ran into a "machine" gun. The obverse is perfect. The damage bent the coin too.

Looks like damage from the packaging machine, used for the pliofilm PL sets.
