“People seemed to kindle to the idea, and it led to this.” Okay then.
Is the polar bear sniffing the dog’s butt? Looks like it to me.
wrongo ghost. the ursine critter is doing a face plant.
for some reason. mebbe to secretly symbolize the whole leftoid province is doing a face plant.
I am however seriously pyssed about this seeing as unlike previously wit’ da round coinage I could clamp them under a drill press and make customized washers for the price of said coin. no disrespect to ‘er majesty.
true story. try it some time.
p.s., regarding coinage, whut is one to do when Canaduh’s round of hyperinflation happens (thanx to the 80 year frenzy of spending) and the metal content scrap value exceeds the denomination? we had it already ya know, back arounds starting 68 when they went halvsies with the silver content.
A polar bear in BC? Perhaps the artist wants an ice age.
But $340 for a $50 coin? Makes sense to somebody.
It must be the ‘Spirit Bear’ who is an albino.
Well that is one coin I am not going to collect.
that…. looks…. just…. awful
Looks like culhcurral ‘propreeayshun to me….
Where’s the beaver ?
God damnit, you’re right. where is the beaver?
It is truly our national animal,
Never mind having the majestic bald eagle like the Yanks.
Yes, we have a giant rodent.
The Bald Eagles is more vulture-style scavenger than a bird of prey. Ben Franklin’s idea of the wild turkey was probably the better choice, or at least the smarter bird.
@geek: Yes, but the eagles look so majestic when they are soaring above my area. Plus the bald eagles here(none around northern NB 20 years ago) seem to dive for the fish in the harbor.
But beavers are hard working and build things. The other animals are free loaders who rely on what the beavers build to prosper. In other words the other animals are the original socialists.
depending on which beaver we are discussing???
And the Corpse closed comments, of course.
Trust this in the age of stupid, Trudopes Lieberal reign.
4th thought: I’ve never spent $50.00 for a refrigerator magnet!
The animals that represent Alberta and Saskatchewan appear to be placed in cages.
That’s how the overseers from Ottawa see those of us in the west. It’s part of them.
Think about separation. It’s the future.
Alberta looks like a cow with a dog’s face. Why would Saskatchewan be represented with a rabbit? It will sell like the Edsel. Might be worth something in a 100 years.
You saw that, huh? I saw a monkey and a bleeding gopher. At least I think I did.
I saw a bad peyote trip
COIN.? Currency.? Pah, progressive garbage…just like what our Polymer “paper” currency has become
In a hundred years it’ll never even be recognized as “currency”. You’ll find them as part of a vanity key chain – hole drilled where Ottawa or Quebec city would be.
“Now they know how many holes it takes to fill Quebec Cityyyy … I’d love to tur-ur-ur-ur-n you u u u u u aw aw aw aw aw awn …”
I, too, thought perhaps gopher, also maybe a coyote, then I looked it up: apparently the artist thinks that’s what a white-tailed deer looks like. At least it does have a white tail.
At least it does have a white tail.
Except we’ve always been told, “there is no white tail north of Waskesiu”
Will it work in the vendo-matic when I need a Red Bull at 2:00 in the morning during a night on call?
“3rd thought. Why is there a dog humping a bird?”
Thought 3a… And then why isn’t the bird Alberta and the dog Quebec?
More than 30 years ago, our dollar was nicknamed the Hudson’s Bay peso, but, at least, it still looked like money.
Prinz Dummkopf comes along and our currency know looks like it belongs in a children’s board game. No wonder our country’s become an international laughingstock.
Looking at the picture again reminded me of the lyrics for this song:
Brave Parks Canada: Speaking truth to power !
What’s the chances that China is running the place next year ?
How does that eyesore fit into a vending machine?
That’s not a coin. It’s a tragedy of modern art.
It self identifies as a ‘coin’, just as it’s maker self identifies as an ‘artist’. Total scam for $340.
This is an example of what the phrase, “A fool and his money are soon parted.” was coined for. ‘Tis the Pet Rock of coins.
They closed the damned comments before I even had a chance to heap praise on that abortion! Anyone know how many taxpayer’s bucks went to the artist/schmuck that designed this outrage?
The astute collector who pays $340 today will one day have a “coin” valued at………. $50, this crap is about as collectable as a Franklin Mint dinner plate.
Wait, thought collectors prize mistakes. Winner for sure.
