I was cleaning out the garage at my great uncles and I found a tin can full of Canadian and American silver dollars and half-dollars. Super cool find. I really like the design on the voyageur dollars. Half-dollars are cool too, kind of wish they were still in circulation

Reply to comment by Carbon_Rod in TIL that in an effort to save $43.5, the Canadian Mint mailed the dies of the new $1 coin via a discount courier over using an armored car- which were promptly stolen and have never been found. This would lead to the adoption of the Loonie design as an emergency replacement. by Padgriffin
