TomFetti Valued Member Canada 59 Posts	Posted 01/15/2020 11:33 am I haven't done much collecting in the last two years. But figured i'd go through what I got & check a few pieces. Did some roll hunting on Monday, & plan to do some more on Friday.. But I got a question about this toonie.. I'm sure it's a snow cap. yet trying to find the (cud?) errors on the queen side, on another coin has been impossible. Cheers - Tom Report this Post to the Staff

Dredge Valued Member Canada 75 Posts	Posted 01/16/2020 4:53 pm I want to disagree with die chips. As I have observed this on a lot toonies. I am not sure how it is happening but it is evenly spaced along the rim like it was squeezed to hard, as it puts a flat spot on the edge? These are 2014 - 2019 from one roll from the bank. Anyone else have a reasonable explanation? Edited by Dredge 01/17/2020 1:31 pm Report this Post to the Staff
john100 Pillar of the Community Canada 5324 Posts	Posted 01/16/2020 5:22 pm That is the edge lettering on the rim and just poor quality production, I thought you were asking about tiny spots around the Queen. Report this Post to the Staff
TomFetti Valued Member Canada 59 Posts	Posted 01/17/2020 08:44 am Thanks for the correction John! I should of known it was Die Chips, not Cud. But I was asking about the oval shapes around the queens inner section of the toonie. So thanks for the help! :D I think this will be a keeper, with snow-cap / die chip. Cheers!

Wade Pillar of the Community Canada 2781 Posts	Posted 01/19/2020 2:57 pm the waffled edges are nothing new, but they do appear to be getting worse every year. as john100 said - poor quality production. makes Canada's $2's look like play money - kind of embarrassing actually.
