Aidan Work Banned New Zealand 306 Posts	Posted 10/01/2005 8:19 pm Here's a section that is a sideline to those collecting British Commonwealth & pre-Confederation Canadian coinage.It is about the coins of Newfoundland,which was the only one of the colonies in what is now Canada to have their own gold coins - the famous $2 of 1865-88.There are some key dates in the Newfoundland coin series,especially the 1946C silver 5c. coin.

Susanlynn9 Forum Mom United States 5877 Posts	Posted 10/03/2005 12:47 pm The Charlton Standard Catalogue also has a section for Newfoundland coins. It's pretty informational and has info on different varieties also. Report this Post to the Staff
Gary Burke Rest in Peace United States 3730 Posts	Posted 10/03/2005 7:20 pm Thanks. Turns out I had the Charlton book in my library, and forgot I had it. One less thing to buy! Report this Post to the Staff

Aidan Work Banned New Zealand 306 Posts	Posted 10/29/2005 8:12 pm The Newfoundland coin series is a very difficult one to collect,not only because of the low mintage figures,but also because of the presence of varities such as in the portraits of Queen Victoria,& re-engraved dates,such as the 1940(C) 1 Cent.I don't know how one can tell the re-engraved dates from the normal dates of the same year.The normal 1940 1c. is listed quite low,whereas,the re-engraved date 1940 1c. is listed quite high.Some denominations in the Newfoundland coin series very seldom turn up at all,namely the silver 25c. of King George V & the gold $2.

Aidan Work Banned New Zealand 306 Posts	Posted 10/31/2005 7:29 pm Ojo,Newfoundland never had Nickels.Surely,you must mean the little silver 1943C 5c. coin of King George VI? Aidan. Report this Post to the Staff
