Over the years have only found a couple of 2015 Cdn Flag coloured quarters in circulation. Has anyone else been able to find them.

The last one was given to me from a teller who knew I would like it. I sort of like the non colour version more. I have 3 of the varieties mcshilling mentions. I have seen them called "light,med,dark red", and I have seen them called "light, med, and dark" shadows.
mcshilling- How do you think these description match up with yours?

Last one was over 2 years ago, so they are getting thin out there.

The one called dark red doesn't fit IMO
The light, med and dark shadows does fit.
The difference is in the black or dark markings, it fits into light or plain then med or faded and dark or defined.
Some where on here (CCF) there are pics of these.

The one you call plain looks like it has no shadows. It's a bit blurry on my end. I tried to get pic's of mine but need better lighting, will have to wait for daylight to get a good one. I will post it tomorrow if the sun co-operates. When you say plain, I'm thinking no shadow's. I don't have one of those.

By the way, congrat's on 3000 posts.

It's nice to be able to say I was talking with you when I hit 250 right behind you. I will have a contest starting soon, so keep an eye out.

I too didn't realize there were different shades of the colour. Either way, I am just looking for any of them to put in my grandchildren's coin collection that I am doing for them.

I wonder if these are varieties or if the shading is just something that can simply vary from coin to coin to different degrees. I don't see anything about it on coinsandcanada quarters list, but this is interesting to note.

I don't know about that, the red, I thought it was the dark colour that you look at to see the colour difference.
