ROSS RIFLE on the 2014 ''TOONIE''.
[/SIZE]Going thru some change that had been collecting in my truck's ash tray ,I noticed one of those '' odd toonies''. it was dated 2014.....its the one with a young lad running up to a soldier marching.....the soldier and others look like they are carrying ROSS Rifles./..........easy to see they are NOT Lee ENFIELDS....
Thought it very interesting......
cheers W.C. / Glenn

Sorry to burst your bubble, but the soldier is carry a Lee Enfield. It is much easier to see in the ten dollar silver coin.
