Nice find d23, not an easy coin to find. Looking at your picture its hard to see if there is a couple die cracks on the obverse. One between the A in Regina and the dot and another beside the right side of the 2ND A in Canada.

You are right that they are somewhat hard to find. I picked up 3-4 more when I picked up my 5 months worth of stuff in Baltimore. I keep them all. Nice coin!

This is a hard coin to find. Rough estimates are 1 in 20-30. Congrats!

I think I also have a couple coming in the mail that I bid on I'm hoping they show up today. I bid on both these coins from the die cracks on the reverse side of the coin that I mentioned in my earlier post. Here's some picture's of the one that I do have.
