<B>2000 Canada 2 Dollar--Mint Error--Struck on a U.S. Sacagawea Dollar Planchet. MS66 PCGS.</B></I> This is a 2000-dated, normally bimetallic Canada Polar Bear two dollar, or "toonie," struck on a U.S. Sacagawea golden dollar planchet. The Royal Canadian Mint upset the rims on some of the 2000 Sacagawea planchets, due to the large number of first-year Sacagaweas struck--more than 1.25 <I>billion</B></I> pieces between Philadelphia and Denver. In our Signature World Coin Auction 419 we featured a 2000 Canadian half dollar (lot 50778) struck on a Sacagawea planchet. This coin is the sibling of that lot, also dated 2000, and undoubtedly caused by a similar mixup at the RCM. That coin and the present piece are both extremely rare, and are <I>the only known U.S.-Canadian dual-nation coins struck on Sacagawea planchets.</B></I> The inner and outer rings for the (would-be) bimetallic coin are crisp and clear, as are all design details. A spectacular error, perhaps a perfect gift for our dual-national friends!<BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Coins & Currency (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>)
