t_y Pillar of the Community Canada 632 Posts	Posted 07/19/2013 3:10 pm The RCMP cracked the operation in 2005. One may find 2004 and 2005 dated fakes but no 2006. If someone has a 2006 PLEASE send it to the RCMP for investigation - this may be a "mint" other than the Montreal. I would suggest all to study the exceptional pictures to learn to recognize this criminal forgery Report this Post to the Staff

Dave22 New Member Canada 26 Posts	Posted 10/26/2013 01:16 am Funny to hear an earlier poster making reference to Tims making criminals. I checked change that I am almost certain came from a TH today. I had this in it. What do you think of this pic of a 2005 toonie? Is it one of the 'special' ones? Report this Post to the Staff
SPP-Ottawa Moderator Canada 10460 Posts	Posted 10/26/2013 4:05 pm Hard to tell with the photo, it actually looks normal.... put it side by side with a normal twoonie prior to 2012. If it is not real, the ring will look different (colour and texture) from a normal nickel ring.

Dave22 New Member Canada 26 Posts	Posted 10/26/2013 5:07 pm About 25% thinner and whiter in color on the edge. 7.27 grams. I have added a couple of other pics as well. To me it looks much different at the edges. I assume that the edges are not nickel as they seem to show much wear but I am no expert. I won't spend it anyway. I was more curious than anything else. Thanks, Dave Report this Post to the Staff
