Happy Belated Canada Day

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

My postings are all off. I should posted about the new 2010 U.S. finds now and about these Canada finds last time but I forgot. Oh well as long as we celebrate with fireworks, history and coins we should all be fine.

These finds are just some common Canadians I found in circulated condition. They are grouped together just like that I do not spend a post on each, all were found on separate days.






It seems I'm breaking  personal records on Canadian finds this year as in oldest, newest and quantity yet none will help me retire early.

1919 Large Canadian Penny...it has a dot before the date

About $1.00 in very-good.

The dot is a small die break and not part of the design. It adds no extra value.

Thankyou :D $80 bucks in quarters than the sets.

1963 50C piece
1984 jaques cartier dollar
1966 silver dollar
1964 charlotte town silver dollar
worth and variations to look for?

The Random Traveler said...

and for all those quarters at $5.10, is that just the silver content value?

Man said...

1963 50C piece about $10.20
1984 jaques cartier dollar about $1.00
1966 silver dollar about $20.40
1964 charlotte town silver dollar about $20.40

variations to look for?
--There are so many in Canada that there are too many to list.
Here is a great site for Canada coins but sometimes they are a day or 2 behind on silver values.
http://www.coinsandcanada.com/coins-prices.php

all those quarters at $5.10, is that just the silver content value?
--Yes, the silver value is still outpacing collectors value.

The Random Traveler said...

thankyou for the prices and link, i will hold off on assualting you with my collection :D

The Random Traveler said...

do you know how many beads there are for small beads as opposed to large beads for the 1966 silver dollar?

Man said...

i will hold off on assualting you with my collection
--I don't mind, it is always good to have more than one opinion. There is always room for more questions.

do you know how many beads there are for small beads as opposed to large beads for the 1966 silver dollar?
--I think it is the same number on both,that number is not listed in the Canadian books.

To tell the difference you need to see where the I in REGINA is pointing. Small beads I points to a bead while LB points between the beads.

The Random Traveler said...

ok thankyou, im not rich hahaha

i have a canadian bill i cant find the prefix on that site you gave me its a 1954 $1 bill, the serial is z/f5284533 signitures are lawson boouey

Man said...

1954 $1 bill, the serial is z/f5284533 signitures are lawson boouey

This is a common type, so that site list the minor and major varieties, not the normal series.

This would just be a Lawson-Bouey note about $1.00 in low grade.
It is there.
