So far, no love for the 10-cent pieces...

I must like swimming against the current, collectors/dealers will say that dimes and fishscale nickles are the least collected/liked demoninations/series, for me however, they are my favourites! (perhaps due to their small size?)

I have the same feeling... The few Canadian coins I have bought were either dimes or fishscales.

I voted for the Edwardian Large cents. My real passion is NF fishscales.

my top 3 favorite sets are (in no particular order):
1. 5ยข nickels 1922-1936
2. silver dollars 1935-1967
3. complete type set 1858-1967
only one of the options approximated what I like, so I chose it.

I like the Victorian large cents. Nice and shiny and red. (as you already saw)

Hey tfred, I've been having some wet dreams about the 1893 you showed me!

I would have picked Canadian Silver dollars 1935-67 if it was a choice.


I would continue on to add all of the nclt silver dollars as well

I voted for the Edwardian Halves, being my favorite amongst the available choices. But if the 1935-1967 Voyageurs dollars were valid options, all of them would have been my choice.

What am I saying...I love them all

@ Glenzy...did I mention that I also collect pictures of Sir Robert Borden (the brown ones) and pictures of MacKenzie King (the red ones)
I do have room to negotiate on the 1893 when you're ready.

I guess the 20 cents doesn't count as a series? If it did, that would have been my pick!

I chose Victoria 10c option because these are the oldest (and prettiest) silver Canadian coins that still have readable dates on them, that I can find in the melt buckets down here on a fairy regular basis. Anything larger is usually worn to unreadability.

The Victorian large cents for me, lots of varieties to cherry pick and the 1859 is fun to collect with all the die pairings.
