thanks CC-Ottawa, I always think this coin is way undervalued, 1/3 oz of gold + 2,068 mintage, I'm pretty happy with the purch ASE |

So would melt value of all three gold toonies be the same?
Only real difference in price would be lower mintage of the 06 toony?

Interestingly J&M still lists the 2006 one at $525.

there is 12% tax on this coin, makes the price not so good

Looking good! I assume it won't tone, will it?

Haven't seen any sign of toning yet, I guess the gold part slowed toning process

Just a heads up - there is a new ebay listing for one of these with a BIN of $475. Pretty reasonable I think. |

Thanks CC-Ottawa for the heads-up!
I only have the gold toonies left to complete my collection and this was the next one the list - because of the reverse silver/gold colouring.
He has the other three gold toonies listed as well for $425 each but I'll save those for later...seems this was the best deal.

NP. I struggled with the decision not to buy it. Pretty good value, low mintage and the COA is even higher than the official mintage. Plus, plus, plus in my books.
Hard to beat 1/3 oz of Au for under $500 especially if you don't have to worry about being taxed when it comes across the border (as it would for me)
