Thanks everyone! Already digging this community as it has answered nearly all of my questions just by reading old threads.
One other question I'm still not clear on: would this be a coin worthy of grading? It is obviously rare but I'm not sure if its condition lends itself to that being appropriate. I have no plans to sell it at the moment but if that were to change, should that affect my decision to get it graded or not?

No need to get it graded...

Why not build a Canadian Elizabeth II 1-cent coin set around it? You already have the cornerstone...

Thats great! Where did you happen to find it? I used to go roll hunting for pennies but now that they are no longer in circulation I don't think you are can do that anymore can you?

As SPP says, don't bother to get it graded and pay a TPG big bucks for opinions that you can get right here. As SPP also says, every other Liz coin in the series is very easy to obtain very very cheaply and common in rolls or old pocket change.

umm I believe this is actually a sf, unless these two sources are both wrong. (although I think it is the same author). hope hes got it backwards but the flare and how its pointing directly at a denticle, according to those sites says its sf.

wazzappenning, I believe you are looking at the wrong i, you should be looking at the I in dei, it is flared and points in between the denticles..

apologies I was actually looking at gratia. dunno why I thought it was that one maybe just from the orientation on those pics although now I see I should have looked a little longer as it is clearly the dei. Sorry jikol, hope you didnt throw it out or something. nice find.
