Today, I traded 10 RCM rolls of 2015 Flanders Field Poppies for 10 RCM rolls of the Canada Flag coin, to a fellow collector. Your thoughts are appreciated as to pros and cons.

Where did you find 10 rolls of the poppies? I have not yet found one roll. In fact I have only found the silver poppies in change - no coloured ones yet. I have seen more of the flags but then, they have been out longer.

There are 6.25 million of each of the colour and non coloured versions of both issue, my guess most of these quarters are still sitting in Winnipegs warehouse waiting for bank orders

I think these are all being hoarded - if they are, the RCM is doing a fantastic job at replacing our "valuable" nickle currency with worthless steel plated crap - all the while creating demand for more currency.

I have found one flag, and poppy quarter in circulation, both were unpainted.

I feel the Flags are more in demand at this time. Good deal for now.
