Farewell to the Canadian penny
The last one-cent coin, in circulation since 1858, was minted on May 4th. The coin had become a nuisance, weighing down consumers’ wallets and costing more to produce than it was worth. (via theeconomist)

25-Cent Glow-in-the-Dark Dino Coin
Canada, you’ve done it again. If you’re a combination dino-freak/numismatist, then this is the coin for you. It’s a glow-in-the-dark Canadian quarter dollar, showing Albertan dinosaur Pachyrhinosaurus lakustai in full skin by daylight, and fossil skeleton by darkness.
It’s the best $30 25-cent piece that money can buy! Three more coins in this ancient creatures series will be released.

dammit, why can’t these just be in regular circulation. I don’t have $30 to spend on something that isn’t $30!

Lost on my way to life.
I collect postcards and would love to do a postcard exchange with each and every one of my followers.
Also, I love ducks.
