The '22 about $25 Cdn, the '24 about $10 Cdn and the others from 50 cents to a few bucks.

Don't use a needle to try to remove any of the stuff. Use a hawthorn or rose thorn, as they won't scratch the coins as much. I can only guess that the original owner of the coins had tried to rinse/wash some of them to remove hand gunk. If they were put away, even damp, then that's where the problem...

What were your "coin wrappers" made of? paper? pliofilm? Plastic? If they were stored in anything that was open to the free circulating oil and there was any humidity, then they will tone. Anything air-tight and low humidity are the best.

I'm sorry for calling them coins .... they have no monetary value. I was referencing the wrong stuff in my Charltons. Please delete my entire post above, as I was looking at something entirely different and mixed them up. They look like medals/medallions/tokens with the Provincial flowers on the bac...

I have deleted my post on the medallions or medals. They celebrated the 125th anniversary I think, but were not coins. Sorry!

Need some better pictures but, since Canada is gone as well as the tops of the sails I say a strike through of something, maybe cloth, maybe metal.

No, the grade (for wear and/or marks) is 67 and the SP says that it was a specimen strike. Meaning it was specially, carefully struck using specially prepared dies. Specimens never went into someone's pocket or landed on a bar or counter for a beer. They were normally put in special holders and then...

You have an Obv 2, well worn, and someone tried to put a hole in it, and even failed at making a good hole. You can see in Gratia that the tool squiggled all over the place taking out the lettering. Keep it as an oddity but it's really valueless.

There are 2 people on this site who would give you an honest price for the coin, if you plan to sell it. They are error specialists. Yes, an appraiser would give you a price, but it might cost you. JUst let folks on here that you would be willing to sell. I don't know about certifying it and the cos...

No error. Post-mint damage with the gouges by someone.

I still don't see any dot

Whatever was done to your coin was done long after it left the mint. There are no letters or portions of the design that are engraved. A perfectly round, flat planchet is fed into the press and then it's struck and comes out a coin, having been struck on both faces and the side/edge. No other evolut...

PCGS certifies hundreds of Canadian varieties and errors. I can think of at least 40 just in Vicky large cents. If an error or variety has been formally recognized and/or published, then they will certify it, but at a substantial cost. Just look at the registry sets for different Canadian denominati...

If CaC listed your coin as a "dot", they are in error. All of the photos in the "variety" section of their site are just submissions from individual collectors who can name it what they want. The moderators or owners of the site do little or no checking on the validity of what is submitted. It is ju...

Regardless of any other photos, it's PMD, purposely done to affix it to something, jewelry or sculpture or ?????
