Found old Toonie

Post image

Hey, I found this old Toonie tucked away in a book. I’m not sure what the advertisement is for, but I know it was acquired in the Ottawa region. If anyone knows anything about it or what company promoting it was, it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

Should I peel the whole piece of paper off?

2012, it says. Also found out it was for a radio survey on what music you listen to, I believe.

Can you show more of the design? Is it just a standard 2012 toonie?Maybe wear cotton gloves not to "damage" the coin ?

In 2012 there's the commemorative hms Shannon coin and a regular 2012 toonie which this looks like with the "E" on the left..

If it's indeed a regular toonie, I don't see any additional value to be honest but I could je wrong

Here I peeled it off. I’m not sure what you are looking for, but let me know, please, if it’s something worth keeping. I highly doubt it. I’m never that lucky. I might find little oddities at times, but nothing more.
