. er . you know it doesn't matter what we think right?
If this and other discussion boards proved something is that the Mint doesn't care what we think. The Mint doesn't even care about the coins it produces !!!
and the RCMP? 3 years investigating and finally indicting only one front man of an operation lead by people somewhere else in the world? Probably a multi-million dollars activity involving tens of people in Canada alone.
The official response for this whole thing, from the beginning to end, was and is PATHETIC.

Great idea, but Terry Fox is already on the 2005 Loonie

This entire mess falls directly on the feet of the RCMP, the OPP, Politicians, the RCM as well as the main stream press. Each and every one of them had the opportunity to get involved. The little town newspaper in Belleville was the only one to print a story. Not counting CCN. All police agencies passed the "buck"....LOLOL.....the RCM did the stop-drop and roll bit, but man oh man get out of the way of the satiracle toonie in Hawksbury. Brent, you did magnificent work on the website (cameltoetoonies), wilsonwu your insights and thoughts were spot on. I kicked, yelled, screamed and showed many in authority actual fakes.....deaf ears......CBC radio wanted to talk....once they found out it was actual counterfiets and not the joke coins......they begged off.......very frustrating. Now watch the little people pay for it in deposit seizures........well done all here who got involved. Our voices were the driving force. MM |

I am pretty sure given that the weight is the same as the new security toonies the fakes work on vending machines.
So they would have to come up with a new design and reprogram everything.
So the government as zero incentive to acknowledged the problem.

Wow! What a great clash! Is it a real coin or camel-toe?

I have to ask, has ICCS, PCGS, CCCS or NCG been fooled by the Camel Toe Toonie ? Have any of the fakes been found in one of the grading companies holders? |

Thanks Okie! Yes definitely a cameltoe but that is a good question as to whether or not one's been graded. Somehow I'm doubtful though as I spot these out like a silver quarter amongst clad.
