toonies
Two-dollar Canadian coins
Toonies are Canadian two-dollar coins, introduced in 1996 to replace the two-dollar bill.
The name plays on loonie, the one-dollar coin featuring a loon, with "two" substituted in: I've got a few toonies in my pocket.
Also spelled twonies or tooneys.
The singular is toonie.
