SPP, can you explain to us the history of the "GAN" counterstamp?

Yesterday I got back from the bank with 200 rolls of 2012 quarters. Since the Mayan Calendar stops on Dec. 21, 2012, I'm going to Counterstamp my new quarters with my initials >G.J.P. 2012-12-22<.
I will set them into circulation in 2013, so if you find one in your change let me know where (city/town) you received it! Ya never know, someday they may be a Collector's item?

^ I'll keep a look out for those. I'm sure that it would take a while to make their way all the way to Southern Ontario though.

I put a post about this in a separate thread...

I wanted to see how long it would be when I'd be asked that question! Absolutely not, just pulling the leg of the C.C.F. community!

I would have liked to see some CS pennies, that would have been interesting to see where they ended up. I don't consider the backdoor jobs to be part of my collection, they'd be an interesting addition on the side, but it's not something I'd go after.
