TerryT Pillar of the Community Canada 823 Posts	Posted 10/24/2022 01:05 am mrmadi - the coin shown isn't posted because it's old, and also not because it's a high grade, only about F. The reason it is posted is because it is a very rare "No Shoulder Fold" type that is probably the rarest, in any grade, for regular circulating Elizabeth II cents. I have searched for this variety since the early 1970's when 1940 and 1950 cents were still fairly new and abundant, and have found 1 in circulation, in F condition. Amazing find, jmclean !!

Jmclean New Member Canada 37 Posts	Posted 10/25/2022 09:39 am Thanks everyone, was pretty exciting to find. I thought I had had one, only to turn it over and see it was a 53 which in that case the no shoulder fold is common, then right after same thing happens again so didnt get my hopes up, but was a 55 that time. Didnt think id fill that hole in the book anytime soon. Report this Post to the Staff
