Coin roll fishing and Santa Claus

[YuriyV]

Last weekend I bought some quarter and dimes in my local bank for coin roll hunting fishing. My "net" brought two 80%s, '67 mackerel and 2004 Santa Claus from 2004 Holiday gift set. Looks good as on me. :-)

Canada always has cool coins and they change the look aften. Come on US, our dime needs revamping!

That is some cool canadian quarter. Whenever I get Canadian coins off the magnet at my coin machine, they are usually caribou, I am trying to put together a collection of those "month" quarters(similar to the USA state quarters??), The pictures are cool on them. HH!

Welcome and nice pics. Thanks for sharing. We don't get too many from Canada sharing their finds.

Thank you guys for responses.
It's not clear for me, how does it happen that coin like this get into circulation. Mintage of it is about 61,000 only. It's very unlikely any collector will deposit his coin from the gift set into a bank...

Kids and thieves. They are not mutually exclusive. Kids sneak coins from the parents collection to get items they want i.e. candy, toys, cigarettes, etc.
