I see it Rocky, bubbles meet the rim in yours, inside the rim on mine. Small bubble leaf versus large bubble leaf versions. You may want to rename. Congrats on the variety, and broken die discovery errors in this NCLT set Rocky. You are a hawk eye for errors.

SilverDon another error leaf 2 . the leaf as you know one end is raised +25 um. the other end is incused -25um. this coin both leafs are raised. SilverDon I wish I could explain. but I guess that is not to be shared on the forum. check your coins from these sets very closely. that is all I can say. this error is on the bottom left side corner of the bubbled maple leaf. that is the easy way to discribe its location. all the rest of the maple leafs are as they should be. hope you have one silver don. here is the image

The 2018 Armstice coins rolls, regular roll, not the " RCM Special Wrap" has been quickly sold out at CA for higher than RCM's price. Looks like, the people really investing in these...

Quote: the rolls at CA, were all solid color toonies, makes a difference. That's correct. But their roll doesn't have dedicated graphic special commemorative wrap. All these rolls are tricky, imo Unless you open it or the specialty of the roll (as reverse of the coloured coin) visible from the side hard to estimate their real value But yes, full-coloured roll is good thing.

Rocky - The die crack in the tri metal test token is getting some press; https://canadiancoinnews.com/tri-me...-discovered/I pulled the trigger on a set with the die crack, I see individual broken out of a set tokens with the die crack going for as low as $20 and up to $35. A Die Crack Set now on sale at CA for Day 9 of 12 Days for $74. All sold out at the Mint. Gimmicky, but now a bit of a rarity. Love a new error coin, when did you first see it Rocky.  "Some of the tri-metal tokens issued by the Royal Canadian Mint this October as part of its 'R+D Lab Collection' were recently discovered with die cracks through the centre of the obverse."

SilverDon my set is numbered 06167/10000. SilverDon have you found any of the 3D toonies yet. I have 3 of them. you will be reading about these proably very quickly. one has just sold for a thousand dollars. they are surfacing now. what I am wondering. could they be a special toonie produced for the world sets. I know that there is a dealer in UK. the sets that he was selling has the canadian Armistice toonie in it. there is quit a few coins from different countries in these sets as well. so the RCM supplied this country toonie to them. I am just wondering. did they possibly produce 3 D coins for them ?
