In 2004, the Royal Canadian Mint produced a limited collector edition ten cent coin marking the 100th anniversary of the Canadian Open Golf Championship. At the same time, Canada Post issued two different unusual golf ball shaped postage stamps marking the same commemorative. Together, the Royal Canadian Mint and Canada Post issued this special anniversary pack featuring two of the commemorative dimes (one in a magnetic ball mark / divot repair tool) together with both commemorative stamps. Official issue price for the presentation was $19.95 each, although the current secondary retail market value of each dime alone is now about $20.
