Wow. This is a VERY nice looking Toonie.
I've never liked the look of the Toonie much. Even with commemoratives the ring tended to be underused and dwarf the core. But, with this the core pops out bold and the ring is AMAZING.
Finally, we have a Toonie that uses the two parts to good effect. Even the new laser etchings are different, with the maple leaves slightly rotated.
The mint should learn from this and update the regular design.

^^ I suspect they may release a cardboard folder like they did with the legendary series.

I like this one. I haven't liked many of the Toonies thus far, but this one is a looker.

I wonder how they decide what denomination to assign a commemorative design?

Placed my order for 3 sets. wish I saw the letter option, owell next time. I agree it looks like one of the best looking toonies I've seen.

If anyone in Canada would be willing to purchase one set for me and mail it down to the US, please PM me.
I'd make a prompt Paypal payment.
Thanks much!

Nice coin! I wonder if a special silver/gold-plated set of all of the new $2 coins is in the offing down the road?
