Erin1986 New Member Canada 4 Posts	Posted 07/31/2012 2:34 pm Hey so I don't know much about coins but want to know more... I looked up the new toonie I got on the Canadian mint but it has the bt bellow and to the right of the polar bear and I'm not sure what it means... Because they didn't show that in the picture of the one on the mint site... Sorry for the lame question and being a newbie! Report this Post to the Staff

Erin1986 New Member Canada 4 Posts	Posted 07/31/2012 2:53 pm I also have a Newfoundland 1917 25 cent piece... And a 1887 Canadian one cent piece. Not sure about them either. I acquired these from a great uncle and they came in a little silver Montreal city and district savings bank with the key. Report this Post to the Staff

Erin1986 New Member Canada 4 Posts	Posted 07/31/2012 2:58 pm Oh! Thanks! Does it mean something to have it on a coin? Because some have it and some don't? Report this Post to the Staff
Amaths Pillar of the Community Canada 572 Posts	Posted 08/01/2012 02:59 am You mean some of the 2012 new toonies have no BT on the reverse? Interesting. Do you have pics for us? Report this Post to the Staff
