Shouldn't Noah and his sons be riding that Pachyrhinosaurus? Not very historical... Razz

Shocked As someone who likes dinosaurs, glow in the dark things, money, while hating pennies, well this settles it. I officially love Canada. Also, Pachyrhinosaurus has long been one of my favorite ceratopsians.

Vigilans, you silly. Everyone knows Noah rode a Chasmosaurus.

Oh wait, the palaeontologists are saying there's no such thing. Gaa! Faith crisis!

Go Canada!

Very lovely, but too expensive. Sad

Whatev'. I'm not interested in collecting coins, just spending 'em. Smile
And there should be a CAVEMAN riding on that dinosaur. That would be more historically accurate than Noah or Jesus. Laughing

I'd put Thor, or Zeus. With an Aztec design in the background.

Why can't the US do something cool like glow in the dark dinosaur quarters?

I wonder if I find one of those places you swap US money for foreign money...if I could get some. Those are so freaky, they are cool!

Maybe ebay has 'em
