                My first thought, too.
                Way too clean to be an accidental tear.

                  Pretty obvious we aren't paying them enough if they have to rob us just to make ends meet...

                      well after two weeks of waiting, and 5 levels of management i've been effectively told the following. (in short to sum it they told me to F off)

                      1. Coins are not allowed to be sent letter mail, effectively countering what the post office wrongly told me, and though Canada Post is liable for the loss because they didn't tell me the proper information they will not do anything about it.
                      2. No one is willing or has a high enough ability to refund the outstanding amount of cost to replace the coins.
                      3. Canada Post staff has stolen the coins as they after 20+ days can't find them at any of the lost items areas, or undeliverable mail offices. (my interpretations of what happened)
                      4. Canada Post sucks and should be sold.



                      GOC is going to front the cash to have these coins that are missing redone and sent out again.

                      Coins Re-Issued will have an R behind the number to note as a re-issue

                      Sorry for the wait on action, we are contacting the minting company tonight.

                            If it happens to come back with an eyepatch and a pegleg, it's the whale's fault.

                              Well i'm not sure whom you're referring to with the 'whale' comment, but i'd bloody well clarify that before CC reads this thread and gets any unfortunate wrong impressions if I were you young man.

                              (and as a matter of fact it DOES come with an eyepatch and pegleg, Mr fashion-conscious-pirate.)
