I can't wait for the Olympics, summer or winter.
Usually there is a new loonie put out for our athletes. Doesn't look like we are going to get one this year. Even if they had of duplicated the 2016 like they did the 2012 2014, it would have been better than nothing.
Now it looks like they have abandoned our athletes, and another loon series.
More than coin collectors are going to see this. "We are poor little lambs...who have lost our way...Baa...Baa...Baa"

Indeed, pretty strange that there apparently won't be a 2018 Lucky Loonie  |

Really, 7 days to the 2018 Winter Olympics and no Lucky Loonie,

I have all of the Silver Lucky Loonies, wondering about this series.
An opportunity missed in my opinion. SMH.

Probably has something to do with the time difference and the pros are not attending the hockey, one of the key events. Would have been easy design to continue the circulating lucky loonie

Alex A- The facebook link you posted says it all. It was a cost cut. Shame on the mint, they should have cut something else.

Cut something else? You mean like one of the hundreds of NCLT?

I was at the RCM mint boutique in Ottawa in early March and the sales rep there said there would be a coin exchange in May. When I returned a few weeks later she mentioned it was canceled after the Government apparently declined the request to produce 2018 commemorative coins and there would be no commemorative circulation coins this year. |
