North of 49 Pillar of the Community Canada 617 Posts	Posted 08/09/2011 6:35 pm I heard a rumor yesterday ( AND I STRESS THE WORD RUMOR ) that the Winnipeg Mint was in for some changes that would effect circulated coins as well as NCLT (which makes no sense because NCLT come from Ottawa). Anyway, anyone else hear of anything or should I chalk this up to just another unfounded rumor? Report this Post to the Staff

In 2011 production was moved to Winnipeg. However, along with this move the finish on the coins in the set was lowered to Circulation to match the other Giftware Sets being produced there. Fifty-six years of collecting continuity is now at an end. What does this mean in catalogue language? With brilliant uncirculated (proof-like) coins no longer being struck, coins dated 2011 will not be listed in the MS-65(NC) to MS-67(NC) grades in the pricing tables." Report this Post to the Staff
