Or any rare coin for that matter. And would I be able to tell the difference? Just a thought. Marc Edited by canadian_coins 08/26/2008 9:18 pm Report this Post to the Staff

I think this coin illustrates nicely how difficult it is to replicate those minute details collectors are familiarized in regards to the portrait and Voyageur design. After studying this copy, I have far more appreciation for the skill used in creating the original. While I'm sure people are trying, I think it will be extraordinarily difficult to match the appearance of the original. Andre, I can totally understand getting a 1948 copy until the time's right to buy the real thing. This is cool! I don't have one either.
