Just a day after the the new Riders Centennial Jersey was released, a report from CBC indicates that an official Canadian Loonie will bear the Saskatchewan Roughriders logo in honor of the team’s centennial season.

The order-in-council authorizing the Royal Canadian Mint to produce a one-dollar circulation coin was dated June 10.

No pictures were available, but according to the order, the coin is to be a standard loonie — seven grams of brass-plated nickel — minus the loon.

The Queen’s portrait is on one side and a Saskatchewan Roughriders logo is on the other.

There will also be a stylized “100″ between the years 1910 and 2010 below the logo.

The order didn’t say when or even if the new Roughriders loonie will be issued by the mint.

Regina’s Barrie Belles, owner of Barrie’s Coins and Stamps, said he expects there will be tremendous interest in the Roughriders loonie — assuming the mint produces it.

“I’m sure everyone in the province will have to have one,” he said. “Across Canada, I think there will be a lot of interest among collectors, too.”
