Crazyb0- We may be Crazy Canucks but we ain't nutsy. At least we were smart enough to use steel on our 1 cent blanks instead of zinc. Howard Black Just to defend my statement so to speak, your original post said that the US minted Canadian Coins as late as 2000. My reply was that they did not mint Canadian coins with the exception of the 68 dime. Quote: Here are some other examples of Canadian planchets used for US coins: I am well aware of these oddball wrong planchet coins that have popped up from time to time. These are not Canadian coins minted by the US Mint but coins struck on wrong planchets whether assisted or not. That all being said, I hope that whatever the outcome, you keep us informed. This is a teaching forum for everybody and I'm sure that we would all like to hear the outcome favourable or not. Good Luck with the results. Report this Post to the Staff
