1970 counterstamped Canadian dollar

Dentuck

Does anyone on the board have an example of the 1970 Manitoba dollar counterstamped G A N 1918-70?

Thank you for posting this. Your post made me do some research and I learned something new today!



<< <i>Above: Canadian nickel dollar, 1970 ( Manitoba Commemorative) counterstamped "G.A.N. / 1918-70" in oval on obverse. Commemorates the death of Gamal Abdel Nasser in 1970. 1000 such overstruck coins were released in the Toronto area by the Arab League of Canada. >>



So far I've only found a thumbnail-sized image, but I'll look some more:

Thank you, Sir! A doff of the Dentuck derby to you.

I've heard of these obscure animals but never seen one.
