Thanks to a friend in Michigan, I have just added 5 Canadian mint sets to my collection, 1968, 1980, 1984, 1993, & 1994. All very attractive coins.
Here is just a sample...













also received a nice Washington Dollar..

Nice additions Steve :good:
I have a collection of Canadian halves and Kennedy halves and every year I have to hunt down the issues for that year .
The Canadian ones are the hardest as they are not issued for circulation :dash1:

[triplewitch]

Which Canadian halves?  There's a fine silver proof, a base proof, a specimen, an uncirculated, and the occasional commemorative, all but the last only issued in sets.  The uncirculated is also in collector rolls.  The rolls are offered each year to Masters Club members and usually sell out to them before they can be offered to the public.  Although all the sets haven't yet been affected, the RCM has increasingly limited sales of circulation coins in the last few years to Canada only.-John

I love fishing, have a good time mate, I got a carp a few days ago, the best part was feeding it to a pelican, haha it wont have to eat for a month now, and I can say the fish was thiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiis big <______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________>
haha the fish you could see in the pelican after it has swallowed it was a good 18"

I don't care what I catch as long as I enjoy myself :yahoo:
Fishing is a lot like collecting , a lot of hard work, experience and expense But at the end of the day it is the enjoyment derived that really makes the whole experience worthwhile  :good:
