cdngmt Valued Member Canada 402 Posts	Posted 12/13/2013 8:05 pm Is there a Canadian 2012 silver toonie? If so what what set was it part of? The regular 2012 specimen set only is described as a silver dollar coin and the rest struck in solid alloys: nickel (5, 10, 25, 50¢ and $2 outer ring), brass ($1 and $2 inner core) and copper (1¢), yet I see many advertisments for 2012 silver toonies. Thanks Arthur Report this Post to the Staff

commems CCF Master Historian of USA Commemoratives United States 12264 Posts	Posted 12/13/2013 9:16 pm Yes, the RCM actually released several. The RCM released the "25th Anniversary of the Loonie - Fine Silver Loonie" in 2012. It sold for $34.95. Also released was the "Lucky Loonie - Fine Silver Coin." It sold for $39.95. They also released a silver loonie plated with gold as part of the "200th Anniversary of the War of 1812 Fine Silver Dollar Proof Set." The set sold for $224.95. EDIT: My apologies, my weary eyes saw "l" instead of "t" - hence my reply regarding loonies. Thankfully, others were quick to give you the info you requested.

kuh_85 Pillar of the Community Canada 2366 Posts	Posted 12/13/2013 10:12 pm There were 2 proof sets issued. The 'Special' one described above with all the coins .9999 silver and the regular one with just the .9999 silver dollar and the rest of the coins in nickel, brass and copper as appropriate. Both have the frosted proof finish so make sure you actually get the expensive one if you're paying for it. Report this Post to the Staff
