Re: Canada $1 coin with 1871-1971

Castor I'm pretty sure it's silver but since I'm going to be selling it, I don't want to say it is if it's not. I actually have another one that has some tarnishing on it so that is why I felt safe in my mind that it was a silver piece. But again, as per your link, there is a difference in the price...

Re: Canada $1 coin with 1871-1971

I'm thinking that the one with the flower is nickel while the one I have is silver?

Canada $1 coin with 1871-1971

I understand that this coin is commerative of British Columbia. The coin I have does not have flowers on it like the photo on this website. Looking under 1971 coins, there seems to be only one kind (flowers) and no notation of another type. Here is what mine looks like. I'm looking to understand why...

Re: Grading of 1911 quarter

Shylo, I've just done some quick research on this and see that the PVC has to be taken off in order to preserve the coin. Yikes! So much to learn.

Re: Grading of 1911 quarter

Thank you for your opinions. Now I can study the grades and compare and kind of see what I should be looking for.
Shylo, I thought I read that coins should not be cleaned? I'm assuming that your suggestion you would not harm the coin?

Thanks again, everyone!

1962 Canadian Penny

Whilst going through some of the coins we have saved I came across a 1962 penny that is the exact colour of a nickel. Did someone just dip in it something? I'm attaching the best pics I could get.

Thanks for your help.
