Amwyll Rwden Valued Member Germany 85 Posts	Posted 05/07/2014 09:58 am I am working on a world type collection of circulation coins, and the RCM is certainly being creative. Is there a list anywhere of which commemoratives circulate and which don't? For example, I know the 100 years Grey Cup loonie, the olympic lucky loonies and the provincial quarters circulate, while I assume the new baby and the hockey teams quarters don't. (Though I wouldn't mind the Flames quarter!) Thanks for any input you have. Report this Post to the Staff

Amwyll Rwden Valued Member Germany 85 Posts	Posted 05/07/2014 10:28 am Whew! So the coloured parks, Olympics, and 1812 issues circulate. I haven't been back in three years, so I'm a bit behind. Thanks for the list, I maybe have about a third of those, so more fun to come. Edited by Amwyll Rwden 05/07/2014 10:32 am Report this Post to the Staff
Bm0ney Pillar of the Community Canada 1005 Posts	Posted 05/07/2014 10:30 am I'm at work right now so that's all that came to mind. (99 coins!) I can add the specific names and dates later. All the coins named are circulation coins. 2002 coins are dated 1952-2002 on the obverse for QEII 50 years. Edited by Bm0ney 05/07/2014 10:43 am Report this Post to the Staff
