I just read a post asking if there were any more toonies this year. I was interested.
Turns out they make a lot of toonies.
I had always heard/read, Canada makes a lot of coins.
According to Numista.com:
From the year 0-1966 Canada made 75 different TYPES of coins.
Any guess how many from 1967-2016?

If you're including NCLT, it will be thousands. Currently, the RCM issues 250-300 annually. Not many of those $1M out there. Good luck getting one. |

The RCM is big-time into granny bait. I'll guess 467 |

I couldn't even fathom a guess if the NCLT is taken into consideration (I don't consider them "coins")  |

Between 1967 - 2016, 49 years, circulation, well over 100 just the 25c with olympics, y2k, etc. My guess 520.
But if it includes NCLT, all of that including each of the different type of coins released in each of the uncirculated sets, proof sets, specimen sets, etc? Oh my gosh, the number has to boggle the mind. Maybe 6,500?

I'm gonna guess $1 Bob! Oh, wrong show. 1620? (contests like this it's always way higher than you think.)

Between all the series, the privy marks, and all the general randomness... I'll say 2527.
(It's probably less than that, I'm highballing it a bit in case I forgot something that makes the number much larger.)

1967-2016 411 different types produced
And my personal Favorite:
Transnistria:
0 - 1966 zero
1967-2016 86

If it was the Price is Right rules I would have guessed over and been eliminated. :)
