I can't believe they don't have a Laura Secord coin for this 1812 theme? What the heck?
They could have several different versions of it . They could even have the world's first edible chocolate legal tender coin. I would love to see what the banks would say if you deposited a chocolate coin. I wonder how ICCS would grade them?

If anyone can post a picture of the $20 polar bear coin(sounds like no one was able to save it) or a picture of the 2012 Specimen Loon coin I would love to see what they look like. Thanks in advance!

I did not save the swimming polar bear in time, maybe other folks can post the image. I only have the Loon image from the specimen set. The Loon looks great.

I like the reflection of the water look, but the loon itself seems like an armadillo loon

I Noticed an image of the Bluenose sitting in my recently viewed items on the Mint's page. Unfortunately, I never got a look at the $20 for $20.

Well the artist did need a model, so why not a loon decoy and two rubber duckies with cotton balls taped on so they looked puffy! :p

It's fine but it seems like a composite. I wonder what the actual image will look like.
