1916 Canada Cent

Have a Canada cent and want to know its value? Leave a comment

Among the last of the Canadian large cent coins the George V series went from 1911-1920. After 1920 they switched to the small cent because of metal prices. The final large cents were also modified to have CANADA on the reverse instead of the obverse.


On the obverse around King George it says GEORGIVS V DEI GRATIA: REX ET IND: IMP: which means George 5th Grace of God:  King and Ind. Emp. The reverse has ONE CENT CANADA over 1916 encircled by beads and a vine wreath.


Here's the stats...
Type / Country: 1 Cent / Canada
Year: 1916
Mintage: 11,022,367
Metal: 95% Copper, 4% Tin, 1% Zinc
Value: $2.50 in VF
