The idea for the 1940 NFLD 5 cent came from a CCF member earlier this year. Thanks again to Doryboy who was gracious enough to email me and send me excellent photos.
The whole tangent about the 1940 and 1941 "re-engraved dates" were often long discussions over pints with Bosox (back when we used to attend Torex at the Hilton airport). It was Rob who then directed me to this thread some time ago (hence why I acknowledged him).
Anyone who knows Rob, and his research with early Canadian coins, will find that as amusing as I did!!
