Mystery revealed: Poppy quarter led to U.S. spy warnings

What a wonderful world. I have a dozen or so of these coins which I saved because they were so unusual. Now I can sleep at night knowing every word spoken at my house wasn't recorded by the CSIS.

Just imagine if they had asked a Canadian about the coin, or better yet phoned the Cnd, Mint

But, Sauron... can any Canadian be trusted?



BTW... there's a fairly good little vid provided in the link. I'll edit it here, if I can get it to work. It's neither a Google nor YouTube vid, so I'll just provide a LINK
