1871 Quarter, the date is at the very bottom of the coin. unfortunately the center of this coin is slick and shows nothing. Trouble I

'm having is it is different then the 1871H, and has two different types of vines on both sides of this coin.
is this the 1871 Canadian coin that had 400,000 minted?

It is definitely not a 1871 Canadian quarter.
Most likely a 1871 British shilling.

Welcome to the forum.

Agree with TBH, certainly not Canadian.
Most likely British but a photo of the Obverse would confirm this.
Photos of both sides should be shown with any inquiries.
