This is very interesting. BTW, for 2017 there will be at least three circulation toonie designs. Two special 150th (one colourized, one not) plus the regular polar bear in a set only. I would not be surprised if the mint has gotten a head start on producing the sets which likely come out in January but it's incredible that one has escaped into the wild and gotten so well warn.... In any case, I may have to stop by Timmy's for a donut and pay with a $20 bill with a request for toonies.  Edited by CC-Ottawa

I would literally drum up as much interest as you possibly could about this coin and post it on ebay for $0.01 and literally let the bidding war start. By listing it at $300 and letting it sit there is a waste. IMO, the clock is ticking towards 2017 and the moment it hits January 1, 2017. Your coin starts depreciating and fast. |

maybe.it will, maybe it won`t, no one knows for sure what will happen here. As for the Auction, I already have one taker, so, I cannot change that, and I would not! What`s seven days, theres still 4 good months left in this year, so, lots of time yet.

300.00 bucks is about right for taking a flyer on this coin, either it's unique and worth a couple thousand or 2 bucks if the RCM mints regular designs toonie in 2017. |

Noticing the $299 ebay bid indicates "reserve not met". |

Nothing wrong with taking a sure profit and taking a chance this coin is very unique trial piece.

Are you kidding, they don't answer the most simple questions regarding mintage figures, most telling like this year just started to see some 2016 loonies and toonies in the GTA area.

Can't trust the mint to be honest with people.
