Canadian Coin question, plz help, thx?
I have a canadian coin, that is the size of a quarter, has canada in the shape of maple leaves on one side, and the emblem of the royal canadian mint, repeated endlessly, with "2000" in the center, on the other side. I belevie this is an incredibly valuable and rare quarter, though i do not know how much it is worth. It is very rare, and an error coin, due to the fact that it is missing the queen of Britain’s head. I’m a coin collector, and the best answer obviously receives 10 x-tra points. Thank you very much

It sounds like a multiple wrong planchet strike.

I didn’t know the Royal Mint has an emblem. Can you post a pic of it? Your description is not exactly very clear. Would be interesting to see this coin. All circulating coins of Canada have the effigy of the Queen on it (she is the Queen of Canada, you know).
In 2000, there were a series of special quarters minted for the millenium.

You may have some commemorative coin minted for 2000. It would not be a legal coin of the country without the Queen on the reverse.
