    Hi Twiggs nice to see you back, the coin is commemorating the 400th anniversary of Quebec, It seems to be getting mixed reviews from the public LOL I have one that I must post as well so thanks for reminding me :smile

    The banks that are distributing these are only giving out 5 per customer, which stinks.

    I heard they are only meant to be used in Quebec, which probably why we don't see them

    They are being distributed by Desjardins Credit Unions here in Toronto, but unfortunately, none are located near my home or workplace. One of my co-workers tells me that he got two or three for me, and I hope he did, as I only managed to get one allotment of five so far. I'd love to have a few more for trade bait, and haven't gotten any in circulation yet.

    First off..... HI TWIGGS!

    Second:

    The boss bought some at the shop last week in a mish mash of other world coins. First time I ever saw one that I remember anyway.

    Cool coins and I know where they are. Just might pick one up for myself.
