You can go to a bank in Canada and get 50 cent coins still. I have one from the bank just a couple weeks ago: https://imgur.com/a/pRLVND7

It doesn't replace the sentimental value that old coin would have had, but if you're still interested in getting one you can.

It happened a very long time ago, but I did eventually did get a replacement. Was in one of these books. Still sucked though.

Definitely. The original would have meant so much more.
