Oh Canada

[pennyaholic]

Just purchased and received some colorized quarters, pretty cool. Does anyone else have any of these coins and feel the same way as me. I am now on the hunt for more if anyone has doubles for sale.

What they look like? Who's coloring them?

The Canadian mint is producing many coins in color for the circulation :

2004 quarters poppy in red (also called the spy coin)
2006 quarters breast cancer in pink
2008 armistice in red
3 quarters in 2009 for the Olympics in red
they also recently produced a double-poppy quarters
i probably forgot some of them

they also produced dozen of different colored design for numismatic issue, i can find at least 3 different series who include a colored quarters "Oh Canada"

I was just at the Ottawa mint on the weekend and noticed that there were lots of colored coins for sale
