That is a different looking reverse ..
I will have to wait until I see the coin, to decide if I like it or not.

Correct, they are NIFC because we are too stupid to stop printing the one dollar note which prevents their circulation.

I really like the NA dollars. I just don't like the golden color. If they were Cu-Ni, then I'd be all over them.
