Default Mint issues Saddledome $20 coin

As part of its "2006 Architectural Treasures" series, the Royal Canadian Mint has issued a silver $20 coin with the good ol' Dome on it.



Quote:
As a significant venue for concerts and other cultural events, the Pengrowth Saddledome stands as an important guardian of Canadian culture preserving its western roots while nurturing its evolution into the future.

I like that, I wish the mint would do something origional with the back of coins. I am getting tired of seeing the queen.
Also I see they have the Notre Dame Basilica in MTL. That is a nice building as well. Also a nice one of the CN Tower (with Skydome of course). Not crazy about the tower but nice coin.
