I fun little question I propose to all you Canadian coin collectors
What modern day coins 1985 - Present
Do you think people will be looking to get their hands on 20 years from now.

Me personally some favorites are

1991 Quarter - 459,000
2000P Dime - Mintage unknown
2006P Penny - 233,000
2006P Penny non-magnetic - Mintage unknown, hopefully something happens and we find out that the mintage is only 230. That would be nice

2000p caribou quarter, 2000 p community, 2000 p creativity, 2000 map mule all 25 cent coins, 2010 10 cent mule, wheel chair mule, I'll have to look and see if I can find more but these are off the top of my head.

I'm a Quarter-fiend, so I think that the:

2007 Olympic Wheelchair Mule is a total winner ...

plus, I really like the

1992 die-rotation Mules (NB, NWT, Sask) ...

and the

2000 die-rotation Mules (Pride, Harmony)

MULE-ON!

Ooops sorry => and for some strange reason I kinda think that the "2005 Liberation of Netherlands" silver proof quarter is kinda cool (only 4,000 minted) ...

Oh, and because I'm a Vancouver Canucks fan, I like to think/dream that 2007 Painted Quarter will actually be worth something someday!? => only "1526" minted/painted ...

NOTE => yah, yah => I am a 100% believer in Victorian and Edwardian quarters, so I realize that these modern-day coins are not even close to being in the same league, "but" => they are still pretty cool, right?

Maybe the 2011 Magnetic cent is rare especially in the west. Out of 2500 pennies I only pulled out one. I live in Vancouver of the Western Canada. They must be sticking in the east, but the real mintage is unknown.

You forgot the 2006 No P No Logo Magnetic Penny.
It is rarer than the 2006-P magnetic, but more common than the 2006-P non-magnetic.

The 2007 Logo- Non Magnetic penny has a low price. It is not at any dealers or coin shows around here, I've never seen one.

Apparently the 2000-P cent does not exist. I heard it was mis-attributed by one of the TPG.

I have a 1999P "quarter" => it's rare enough => but really only worth $25 coin, or so ...

... I think the 1999P "one cent" is in roughly the same ball-park?

Yeah, you can still get the 5 coin 1999P set easy enough for around $80.

Most 1980's circulation strike nickel coinage is very hard to find at MS65 or better, and generally sells at auction in excess of Trends.

Personally, I believe the 1985 1 cent pointed 5 is a pretty hard find. I've found 1 out of 175000 pennies!
But also the 2006P non-magnetic. wheel-chair mule is a definite yes! and I haven't found any 1990 bare belly nickels yet.
