Chako's Canadian Care Package
on: October 28, 2014, 03:14:36 PM
Recently Chako very kindly sent me a care package, for my work on the 2014 challenge coins and tools (all sets still available). I thought I'd take this opportunity to show Chako's generosity:



A brand new Dime, a photon light, a couple of Canadian flag rub on tattoos, some wind-up toys and a special quarter.

I love the wind-up toys, especially the lizard. I dare anyone to watch it moving and not smile.

My favourite item though is the 25cents. I'm quite an avid coin collector, but didn't know that the Canadian Mint had released special edition quarters. It's always nice to see a bit more colour on coinage.



Cheers Chako.

Very nice!! :tu:

We have quite a few special quarters that are pretty cool, and most go into regular (though limited) circulation.

Last year when I was trying to track down a specific tool, Chako stepped in to help me. I completely agree with you. His generosity is legendary here.

A Top bloke!! :salute:

Everyone should visit the Royal Canadian Mint website and see how our coins destroy all other mints. :tu:

Tha Royal Canadian Mint site has some really nice collectors pieces, but national pride dictates that I must proclaim the virtues of the British Royal Mint and it's also very fine coinage.

Chako, you gave me the idea of using our international membership, as a way of better collecting the coinage of the world, but I'm going to have to think long and hard as to how that could possibly be achieved.

I can send you Finnish one euro coin if you want to.

That's very kind of you.
Although checking my euro folder; I don't have any Finnish coinage.
If possible, could you send me one of each denomination, I would certainly reimburse you for them. Extra prizes for any of the special design 2€ coins.
I'll PM you my address.
Cheers
