While I am accused of being a grammar Nazi on a regular basis, it's not just the grammar, spelling, and typos of CCN that are annoying. The editor professes to be a history nut, yet such things as Sir Wilfrid Laurier being a cabinet minister under prime minister William Lyon Mackenzie, and Laurier beating Macdonald in the 1891 election have been printed.

The Canadian Coin News certainly does have some "Proof Reading " issues that are not acceptable to be sure. That said , they are pretty much all we have in the form of a COMMERCIAL publication related to Canadian Numismatics. I for one will continue my subscription and support. To all who criticize them, I am sure that a well written article as a contribution is always welcome. I am also certain that a paid ad once in awhile will be acceptable too! Hmm........... spell check on..........yup!!

Had a chance to view the Legacy II coins from the web pics and then the catalogues..
My feeling is the Sheldon scale has been moved up to 80 judging by the 64's ..65's and 66's and 67's being offered there.
All wonderful cents ,..and all with fine marks and fine scratches and soft stains as would be expected from storage going back so far.. Most called "gems or superb ultra gems" and using the new terminology as to what now qualifies as a true gem state or superior gem cent..
