sel_69l Bedrock of the Community Australia 21788 Posts	Posted 02/16/2018 6:13 pm The RCM may win a patents battle on the use of the red poppy for use on remembrance coins, but that is about as far as the battle might extend. Seems to be a Design Patent issue, rather than a general patent, relating to the technique of color pad printing. The Ram has used the red poppy on remembrance coins for one year only, in 2012. Since then, the RAM has used a completely different series of color pad printed designs, that does not use the red poppy. The red poppy flower has been used as a symbol of remembrance since the end of WW1, by many British Commonwealth Countries. They have been sold as a button hole by the Returned Servicemen's League in Australia for fund raising, to the benefit of war widows and their families. I remember seeing these from early childhood; probably the same in Canada. Report this Post to the Staff

just carl Bedrock of the Community United States 20753 Posts	Posted 02/19/2018 3:57 pm I like the idea of a coin that glows in the dark. Only not if made with radiation materials. Imagine dropping a coin in a dark place and being able to find it easily. Report this Post to the Staff
coaster Pillar of the Community Australia 1364 Posts	Posted 02/20/2018 12:06 am Thanks for showing more of your country's lovely, coloured coins Dorado. Just wondering if you know how hardy the colour is on Canadian coins? Apparently the colour on our Aussie $2 coins can be removed quite easily by using acetone. It's not uncommon to find examples on ebay where they are listed as being error coins! https://www.australian-coins.com/co...ur-2-dollar/ Report this Post to the Staff

SaintRidley Pillar of the Community United States 592 Posts	Posted 02/22/2018 01:09 am There are a few smaller countries without their own mints that have colorized circulation coins minted by the RCM - got to see a few in queue for refinishing while touring there in July.
