Ladies and/or Gentlemen,

I need a little help/reassurance. Here in the USA, if I wanted a spectator to sign/initial a coin then that coin would most definitely be a quarter. Everything else is either too small or too uncommon to expect to be in someone's pocket. The quarter wins....hands down...no debate.
My question is: What coin would I expect to use in Europe and Canada to be borrowed and signed/initialed? Is there any debate?

Thnk you in advance...peace, Charlie

2 euro coins are probably the only decent size in the EU. (Also exactly the same size as an English 2p coin which can be useful)

Canadian One Dollar coin (Loonie) is 26 mm in diameter as opposed to 24.3 mm for a US quarter. And a two dollar coin (Toonie) is 28 mm. The loonie is one color - gold - while the toonie is two-tone: Silver surrounding gold. BTW, another great benefit - both are ferromagnetic: attracted to magnets!

A toonie or a 2 euro coin would be the way to go, but people may consider that to be valuable (after all, that's eight quarters you're borrowing!).

P!

You can use 1 euro or 50 cent coins too.The 50 cents coin is a little bit bigger than 1 euro and they are more common than 2 euro.

Most helpful everyone....thank you all very much.

Peace, Charlie
