For those of you who collect canadian coins, how do you organize them? What I am getting at is when you put them into a 2x2 holder do you have the date (reverse) on top or the Queen's portrait on the top (obverse)?

Also, how do you display the old effigy and the new effigy? The reverses are the same.

I have only a few canadian coins yet
What I have I put on 2x2's and I like the reverse better ( than the Queen's portret),but that's just me.
Maybe I have yet to grow up and buy a coin because of the Queen's portret,but if I buy one is because I like the reverse design,that's the one I want to look at.

I guess its just personal preference. I am undecided. But I do like having the date side on top though.

I do as Eugen does. Queen faces back.
That's not only Canadian ones, I want to see the value and the more distinguishing design.
The portraits are second faces of the coins - to me.
