Randy @ Chief Coin suprised me today by saying he'd found a Canadian Type Set for me. This is like a real early Christmas. I wonder if it's cheaper to by Canadian coins at shops in Canada?
Prost!
Why step over the dollar to get to the cent? Because it's a 55DDO.

Well the Canadian dollar is only about 89% the US$ but then you'll have to pay the GST and PST which usually comes to 15%.

I live close to the border. I've never declared anything I've purchased in Canada when re-entering. I'll just slip it into a flip and mix it all in with my pocket change

You'll have a lot better luck in Calgary for finding a coin store. Where is Cranbrook? I can't find it on a map.

Yeah but Calgary is six hours away. Cranbook is a nice day trip. If you can find Eureka, MT on a map the crossing is called Rooseville. Go up on a map and the road splits. Cranbrook is to the left, and Kimberly is to the right. Actually I messed up, it's in BC not Alberta.

All Canadian provinces are the same, anyway.
My aunt and grandmother are about 200 miles due west of Cranbrook in the Okanogan Valley.

Wow, now that's neat. Even though my father was born in Montana he was raised in the Okanogan Valley in Washington State. Near Oroville and Tonasket (sp?). Just south of the Canadian region.
