And the Twoonie:

Of course, the Yanks never took to the two dollar bill, but Canadians always found it a usefull denomination, all the more so now that one and two dollar denominations are coins.

The coins are handy for parking meters, although in Toronto most parking meters accept credit cards.

That is a nice looking coin. I do not think that I have one in my collection. There are parking meters that accept credit cards? I learn something new every day.
