Hamm: Give that to me
Me: No, you've got enough coins already!

Me: * Move hand in cicles and watch his eyes follow*
Hamm: Argh! Just gimme that!

Worth
Consider the Exchange Rate:
High Value-
• Great for overseas travel.
• Great for importers.
• Great for shoppers/consumers for foreign-made products, which is almost everything on our store shelves -including food.
• Bad for those whose salary is paid in foreign currency.
• Bad for exporters from Australia.
• Bad for egregious-profit-seeking businesses.
• Bad for wealthy Chinese sending their brats here for an education, to set up small side enterprises buying Baby Formula to sell at three times as much, back in China.
• Bad for wealthy Chinese real estate investors snapping up apartment and office buildings and a dairy at bargain basement prices.
• Bad for the wine industry exports.
• Bad for the Tourism Industry reliant upon visitors from overseas.
• In short great for the little guy, but bad for the Big end of town •

"Canadian Tire" stores have been a fixture in Canadian cities for over 90 years. Even with the influx of bit US retail chains, Canadian Tire has managed to maintain its status as an ubiquitous staple of Canadiana. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canadian_Tire_money
Perhaps nothing is a better symbol of this than Canadian Tire Money. With each purchase the buyer gets a small percentage back at the cash register, in the form of their own currency. Normally paper, and now digital, but every now and then they offer $1 coins, such as this one from 2010.

Center is not as obviously the same as the border, but still pretty close. Wonder whether a 1-dollar bill from that time would provide a better comparison?
Taken with my camera phone, so it's blurry, but hopefully it's clear enough to let you see the similarities!
Mintage: 14,000
The 1850-O is the rarest gold dollar ever produced at the New Orleans. It sells for less in higher grades than the more common 1855-O, but the latter issue, because of its one-year type status, is in greater demand amongst a larger variety of collectors. The 1850-O is generally seen in the EF40 to AU50 grades. There are a few dozen known in Uncirculated with the great majority in the MS60 to MS61 range. Properly graded MS62's are rare and this is a very rare coin in full MS63 with just six graded as such by PCGS and two finer (both MS64's).
This moderately abraded example is well-struck with nice luster and a pleasing appearance. A few scuffs can be seen on the obverse; the reverse is very choice. Both sides display medium orange-gold hues.
Despite increased popularity in New Orleans gold coins and gold dollars in general, the pricing of this condition rarity has stayed flat, making it a very good value in my opinion.
Mintage: 6,360
The 1852-D is one of the scarcer Type One Dahlonega gold dolalrs. There are under 200 known in all grades and most are seen in the EF40 to AU50 range. This date is rare in properly graded Uncirculated and most are in the MS60 to MS61 range. What appear to be scratches on the surfaces are actually mint-made raised die lines and all examples have an obvious reverse die scratch just past the second A in AMERICA to the wreath.
Mintage: 9,882
Here's an example that is unusual in two regards. First, it is a very early die state with no cracks or clashing on the reverse. Secondly, it is very well-preserved for the issue and among the finer known of the approximately 15-20 Uncirculated pieces that are currently accounted for. The weakness on the obverse border at 6:00-7:00 is typical for the issue as are the "artifacts" around the stars.
Mintage: 1,811
PCGS designated as Full Date on holder. Green Pond Collection Pedigree.
This numismatically significant issue is the only Type Two gold dollar from the Dahlonega mint. It is the second rarest gold dollar from Dahlonega in terms of overall rarity, and it is the single rarest in high grade. Only 1,811 were struck, of which 75-100 are known in all grades. The 1855-D is exceedingly rare in Uncirculated with just four or five known. As far as I know, the other Uncirculated pieces are off the market in tightly held collections.
The vast majority (close to 90%) of the known survivors show weakly impressed dates and this example is notable for having an exceptional quality of strike. In fact, it is as bold as on any 1855-D that I have seen. This piece is quite lustrous with attractive lime-green color that is accentuated by flashes of crimson at the lower central obverse and a lighter shade at the central reverse. Some clashmarks at the centers ar clearly visible and they add a "neatness" factor to the visual appeal; a small old scratch extends up from between UN in UNITED into the center of the neck.

Mintage: 2,935
This is the 4th rarest of 13 gold dollars made at the Dahlonega mint, and it is the single rarest Type One dollar from this mint. Only 2,935 were struck, and an estimated 100-125 are known in all grades. The 1854-D is very rare in Uncirculated, with just 7-10 known to me. The highest graded is a single NGC MS63 that is ex Reed Hawn.
For the date, this coin has excellent eye appeal with very good detail on the obverse and reverse. The color is a medium orange-gold with green and reddish overtones, in different hues, on the obverse and reverse. A few small marks in the obverse fields limit the grade; the reverse is quite choice.

The 1852-O is considerably scarcer in Uncirculated than the 1849-O, 1851-O and 1853-O. It is not all that hard to find in the lower Uncirculated grades but it is rare in properly graded MS63 and very rare (and expensive) above this. This high end example has very choice frosty surfaces with nice light orange-gold color. The strike is very sharp with good detail at the centers; more-so on the obverse than on the reverse. A few tiny abrasions below the truncation narrowly keep this coin from grading MS64 but it is decidedly nicer than most I have seen in MS63 holders.
Mintage: 290,000
This is as sharply struck a gold dollar from the New Orleans mint as any that I have ever seen and it is illustrated to prove how capable of this mint was making high quality coins at this point in time.

Mintage: 10,000
With the exception of the popular one-year type 1856-S, all of the gold dollars from San Francisco are rare in Uncirculated. The 1857-S, a low mintage issue with just 10,000 struck, is no exception - and when available survivors are mostly in the EF45 to AU55 range. In Uncirculated, there are probably not more than a dozen or so known - and nearly all grade MS60 to MS61.
The present example is a strictly "new" coin with full luster and no wear seen on the high spots. The surfaces are clean and choice with no detracting marks and the luster is far more vibrant than usual for the issue. Also worthy of note is this coin's bold strike which is uncommonly sharp at the border and which features strong centers as well.
Mintage: 9,803
As a rule, this date has major appearance issues. Most 1855-C gold dollars were produced on inferior planchets and the quality of strike is typically erratic at best. The present example is among the most original and best struck 1855-C dollars I can recall having handled and I've handled nearly every known piece that is choice. Two things really stand out about this coin: its deep, even natural color and its bold strike. The surfaces have never been processed or lightened which is extremely unusual for the issue. The strike is as strong as you are ever going to see with hair separation on the obverse and a completely bold date on the reverse. The value of the 1855-C has been cheapened over the years by the miserable quality of the majority of coins in AU holders. But it should be stressed that choice, original AU's are really rare and examples with this degree of eye appeal are almost never offered for sale.
Mintage: 1,500-3,000
The 1861-D is the most historic gold dollar - and certainly the single most in-demand issue of this denomination. It is the only U.S. coin that without a doubt was produced by the Confederacy - and new research shows that the mintage figure was as low as 750-1000 pieces. A decent number (around 75-100) of these have survived, no doubt due to some being saved as souvenirs.
The level of demand for this date has been very intense since around 2006, when new buyers turned their attention towards coins with great “stories.” Suddenly, the demand for the 1861-D dollar was greater than just gold dollar specialists and Dahlonega collectors. In my experience, collectors who will never buy another Dahlonega gold coin will still actively pursue an 1861-D dollar.
This example shows a typical quality of strike with a generally soft appearance and virtually no trace of the U in UNITED. The date and mintmark are sharp and there is a good deal of soft, frosty luster on both sides. The obverse shows even orange-gold color while the reverse is a bit deeper in hue. There are no marks of note.
Nearly all of the higher quality 1861-D dollars off the market for the time being.
Mintage: 1,460
Duke's Creek Collection pedigree.
From the standpoint of overall rarity, the 1856-D is among the very rarest gold dollars. There are well under 100 known in all grades and in Uncirculated this issue is extremely rare with just five or six accounted for. All examples are very weak on the U in UNITED and most are flat on the 5 in the date.
There are just four or five known in Uncirculated and the above example is pedigreed to the famous Duke's Creek Collection.

The 1859-C is the final gold dollar made at the Charlotte Mint, and it is one of just two that employ the Type Three design. This is actually one of the rarest dollars from this mint in terms of overall rarity. It is more available in higher grades than its counterpart ,the 1857-C, and I believe that as many as a dozen exist in Uncirculated - with the finest of these being a coin or two in PCGS MS63 holders.
This issue has a distinct appearance due to its strike, as does the 1857-C. The obverse always has a weak, slightly blurry appearance, and this is the case on the obverse; the reverse is a bit better struck but it doesn’t have the clarity of detail that is seen on Philadelphia gold dollars of this era. NGC has assigned its grade based on the remaining luster (which is plentiful) and the lack of wear on the high spots. As this coin is carefully examined, it is possible to see that it is not only “new” but it approaches the choice level as well.
Mintage: 3,533
The Type Three Dahlonega issues include some famous rarities such as the 1860-D and the 1861-D. The 1857-D, while not as rare as these two issues, is a scarcity in its own right, with fewer than 200 known today. It is seen most often in the EF40 to AU50 grade range and it is rare in properly graded AU55 to AU58. In Uncirculated, the 1857-D is very rare with around a half dozen known and none finer than MS62.
The number of coins graded for NGC is for AU58 and does not indicate those assigned a “+.” CAC has approved two 1857-D dollars in AU58 and only one better.
