    What are some missed opportunities or mess

    My favourite

    110th Canada mint honours the Sovergain

    What should have been done : Just work with the royal mint and strike sovereigns with the C mint mark dated 2018 strike them in Ottawa with Elizabeth II on them strike them to the original fineness. This is a home run and exciting

    what we got: a fugly gold plated silver $20 piece with Edward VII on it that some how make the classic St. George design look bad
