    The $2 coin in Canada should’ve been called a doubloonie but we got twoonie instead. (Both play on the $1 coin being called a loonie after the loon pictured on the tail side. As a bonus inconsequential hot take, I believe all tail sides of coins should feature an animal with an actual tail, for clarity. So the loonie is fine, as is the Canadian nickel, which features a beaver with a big ass tail! The quarter features a moose. While said animal has a tail, only its head is shown on the coin, so that’s a bit confusing.)

      I think that the Bluenose on the tail of the dime is sailing under a tailwind. So that’s ok too.

        Good call!

        I wish the twoonie polar bear was at a slightly different angle so that you could see his ass better. They do have tails but they’re not big compared to the animal. Still, I think I can accept that there’s a tail there somewhere?
