If you found a Canadian coin struck on a Sacagawea planchet, it would most likely need to be a toonie.
I purchased it years ago as a Canadian quarter struck on a foreign planchet. It wasn't until years later that it was determined to be struck on a...
Just got this one back from NGC and thought I would share it. Canadian Quarter struck on a US 5 Cent Planchet. Only one other example I know of...
