 Nice buy Papeldog! Large cents you purchased for a song are gorgeous with tons of eye appeal and a sure investment, especially at the prices you bought 'em for! Nice to here another success story.  Glenn Edited by glenzy1

I bought this a couple of years ago off an E-bay listing with a bad photo. I think I paid about $60 or $70 for it.  http://www.victoriancent.com2011 & 2025 Fred Bowman Literary Award Winner, 2020 J. Douglas Ferguson Award Winner, & 2022 Paul Fiocca Award Winner. Life Member of RCNA.

One more. I bought this coin raw off E-bay about four years ago for $300. The only reason I didn't get it for $30 was that one other bidder recognized it for what it is. Now in a PCGS 63RB holder.  http://www.victoriancent.com2011 & 2025 Fred Bowman Literary Award Winner, 2020 J. Douglas Ferguson Award Winner, & 2022 Paul Fiocca Award Winner. Life Member of RCNA.

The best cherry pick story I have ever heard on a Canadian coin comes from the Belzberg collection. Sid bought a 1906 small crown 25 cent piece raw off a German E-bay listing for about $800. It ended up in his collection in a PCGS MS-62 holder.

It's a 1884 obv 1 large cent, this is the second one I've found this year and this was the most expensive one so far out of the 4 that I have. So keep your eyes open they are still being found.

I picked up 5 $25.00 boxes of mixed BU Canadian cents for face value. The earliest date so far from the rolls I have opened is 1957 and the latest date is 1963. Here is what was found in one roll I opened.  |
