Sap Moderator Australia 16806 Posts	Posted 12/14/2006 03:58 am This is the "coin" Dutchy's asking about: It's not technically a "coin" - no date or denomination. Likely a souvenir medal of some sort? Don't say "infinitely" when you mean "very"; otherwise, you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite. - C. S. Lewis Report this Post to the Staff

Sap Moderator Australia 16806 Posts	Posted 12/14/2006 07:29 am I think dutchy is also asking about what the furry thing on the "reverse" (non-portrait side) is. It seems to be the crest of the Canadian coat of arms, though somewhat artistically rendered: a crowned British lion holding a maple leaf. According to Wikipedia, the crest is used as a symbol of the G-G. The G-G's flag consists of the crest on a blue background. Don't say "infinitely" when you mean "very"; otherwise, you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite. - C. S. Lewis Report this Post to the Staff
