Hi guys I have a 2008 lucky loonie. It is a dark bronze colour and is not very magnetic. Is this a valuable coin? I've seen one advertised online that is identical to mine priced at close to $6000 Canadian. I'm going to try and attach some pictures.

I don't know where you got that price from but that is the business strike loonie for 2008.
With 10,851,000 minted, they are not very rare and in that condition is worth $1.00.
Do not believe everything you see online, there are sellers that ask ridiculous prices
in the hope of finding that one unsuspecting buyer

Are you able to tell us the weight?

What does "not very magnetic" mean? What are you using as a magnet to test this?

Rocky, there is no variety present... the queens eye looks normal, clearer photos that are not blurry would be needed in order to recognize anything out of the ordinary.

Only thing I see is normal circulated 2008 lucky loon dollar.
