I like the first one!
Note: If it's a medallion it's not a coin I guess...

I remember picking up a couple of very similar RCM medals at an ANA show years ago. They featured the same polar bear design on one side, but I believe a different design on the other. I'll have to dig one out and compare. Collecting history one coin or medal at a time! (c) commems. All rights reserved.

Purchased this coin today for $20. There's no year stating on it and there's a crack on the capsule. On one side, it showed Ottawa and on Winnipeg is on the other side.   |

Very nice, Lostwords
I still liked the second one, "twoonie style" medallion.
The most attractive to me though is the one, "devided" to areas, shows different coins...i think, from 2011.
Waiting more neat stuff from you, resulted by some Souvenir sheets and booklets.

He got it from his grandpa. I am picking something up from him today as well. Will post it up once I get it. This is the fear for some of us collectors. We collect stuffs and no one else in our family know anything or appreciated them. They will sell our collection dirt cheap |
