Can, Can, Can

Do you have a Canadian coins and want to know its value? Leave a comment

A trio of Canadian cents that I have found before and talked about before.
So...
Um...have you heard a bunch of brand new $100 bills had gutter fold errors so they are sifting through them before shipping them out.

Oh and silver got to $30 an ounce and is currently going down again. Yup.

 

They are scratched, dented, covered in verdigris and gum. At least I hope that is gum.

Year: 1967
Mintage: 345,140,645
Metal: 98% Copper, 1.5% Zinc, 0.5% Tin

    There is no proper place to post questions it is fine to ask anywhere.

    It's about $0.10.

  3. I've found a 1988 Quarter that has an overall dark black shade and a large air bubble that rises up parts of both sides.

    I assume this is just because it was exposed to heat after the minting process but I was just wondering if any such defect has ever been heard of.

    Your instincts were right it is heat damage.

    Some black quarters are true errors called sintered but they would not be bubbled.

  5. Found two die errors on my State Quarters collection today.

    1. 1999 Connectcut, the word "Oak" is missing from the phrase "The Charter Oak" on the reverse
    2. 2005 Kansas, infamous "In God We Rust" on obverse

    Do these defects do anything for the value of the coins?

    Sounds either weak strike or Struck Through Grease error either way no extra value.

  7. I've never seen a Canadian coin from that era before. I like that design much better than the current design.

  14. I have a 1935 canadian penny which has raised edges. Would that be damage or a mint error?

    It sounds normal but without a picture I can not say with any certainty.
