Well how about that!
I propose that we rename the contest to "Joecoins 20 questions challenge".
I will wait to start the next round, until loonielewey is able to sweet talk his wife into using her camera to take the picture.

Quote: I'll jump first. My guess is that this is the Canadian 2 dollar silver proof issue of 1997, commemorating the '72 hockey victory over Russia. It is one of the coins on this numista page: Something was not right about this, so I looked at the link. The link is so wrong! All the coins in the list are silver DOLLARS, not toonies. So Numista is not always accurate. I should have caught it earlier, and would have cleared it up and maybe even let you re-guess, but to late now. My apologies. Edit: On 2nd thought, the list is the proof sets that these coins came in. Recognized by the silver dollar of that years set. Quote: I propose that we rename the contest to "Joecoins 20 questions challenge". Were going to see your whole collection, 1 coin at a time.   . Should have the pic's up about 3 or 4.

Was the coin minted in or after 1900?
