So I was in Canada for business a week ago and stopped to fill up with gas at a Petro Canada station.
I decided to buy a quarter, "to support Canadian athletes", and did not think twice about it. Well I come home to find, from the November 30th Coin World that there is a variety for this quarter!
Excited I quickly searched for and found the quarter and low and behold, it is the variety. The second 2 in the date is 'countersunk' which according to the article is the rarest.
I realize that it is probably not worth all that much but I thought it was kinda neat that I would find such a thing at a promotional stand in a gas station!
