Re: Mintage number

Still doesn’t reflect the coin itself but another example (renewed silver dollar, 35th anniversary of the loonie)

Mintage number

I’m curious, does the mintage number make a difference on the value of the coin?
Eg; lower number, higher number, sequential or repeater?
The photo is for the 5 oz 2024 PAX though the coin does not matter for the question.

Serial number

This bill is not in the best condition but has an amazing serial number. Worth hanging on to?
Thoughts?

Design?

Hi;
I was wondering if this is or at what point it may be considered a “design” 1946 50¢ piece. It has the chip in the 6 and the die crack leading out but is not as prolific as the picture in the Coins and Canada listing. Also, if I could a grade, that would help.

Serial not found

Hi, I just got this banknote from a friend and went to look it up an it is not found. I know it probably isn’t worth more than face value but am curious why it isn’t showing up.

1986 nickel weird colouring.

A friend asked me about this coin and I told them I would look into it. I cannot find any info other then it was most likely buried in dirt. I’m not believing this and was hoping I could get more info on it.

Thanks

Canada 1967 dollar coin

Hello, I have this coin that I cannot find any information on. It’s a 1867-1967 Proof dollar coin. There is doubling in the lettering on both sides and what looks like extra frosting on the date and a lot on the lettering as well. I also feel the goose looks unusual esp. in the wing but I don’t have...

Re: 1861 Nova Scotia one cent with dbling and erosion.

Yes, thank you. After looking that up, it does look similar. It seems lamination has a large variety of of looks and helps explain this other coin. (In picture bellow) Just a couple follow up questions, Would this effect the grade? What grade would you say this coin is (the original)? and how would ...

Here are a few more pictures.
Most pictures should zoom in okay.
