Nikon Valued Member Canada 185 Posts	Posted 08/27/2016 9:21 pm Hey there, I have seen a few people talking about errors in 2016 coins... I have rarely seen doubling and missing dots on nickels and dimes... have yet to have a quarter with an error.. or a loonie, but today I saw a toonie with a strange error, (would have photos but I did not have the cash on me to buy it from the till. The edge stamping seemed off center and caused raised portions on the obverse... Is it just me or is the RCM letting things slip? Edited by Nikon 08/27/2016 9:55 pm Report this Post to the Staff

I'd guess that similar to any other mass-produced product in our disposable society of today, it's made as cheaply and quickly as technology will allow. Winnipeg's high-speed circulation presses can produce 20 million coins each day. That's 750 coins per second! http://www.mint.ca/store/mint/about....V8MJ5XjOerU Report this Post to the Staff

I surfed on google... without success. Is it the same thing as what is shown in this other thread (''waffling'' 2015 toonie) : https://goccf.com/t/241590 ? Report this Post to the Staff
