Canada Quarter Glows in Dark

[piasabird]

The Canadian mint is releasing a Quarter with a dinosaur that glows in the dark. Canada will do anything to convice people that the Canadian Quarter is something people should want.

Maybe this is a wicked plot to lower the sperm count in men when they put these in their pockets?

These are not general coins going into mass circulation.

I am just joking a bit. Usually it is the US Mint making all the new coins. So this is actually kind of interesting.

What powers the glow in the dark? If its Florence, it might be safe but not permanent, if its radioacvity I am not interested.

They do different things, they also make several various coins with holograms in them.

I still have a $5 Canadian Bill...last time I was in Canada I used a $2 bill and the clerk refused to accept it. They guy behind me traded a Twonie for it. I spent it on purpose, knowing some Canadian would get more enjoyment out of the no longer used bill than I would.

We also use nanotechnology-enabled quarters to spy on US military contractors.
