1997 Silver? Find!
1997 Silver? Find!
I was coin roll hunting a couple boxes of toonies this morning and this coin stood out. It was non-magnetic weighed 8.84g and had a proof like finish. Being relatively new to this hobby I had to search the internet to find out that indeed there were silver toonies minted in 1997. I never imagined that I would find silver while coin roll hunting toonies! Unfortunately, since it has been circulated most of the value is gone but I'm happy to add it to my collection.

Re: 1997 Silver? Find!
Someone must have broken it out of the 1997 Hockey Proof set.
It is Sterling Silver with a gold plated centre.
Nice find, the bullion alone is worth more than $2.00
