I've always been intrigued by the Canadian 5 cent silver pieces. I'm curious to know what sources buyers use, beyond the obvious Ebay. Would also love to see some favourite pics, particularly some Vics!

What quality if pieces you looking for? Ebay has a nice mix, but higher MS coins can be found at Heritage, stacks, cnc coin auction and better dealers.

I remember buying my first, and only, silver 5-cent piece (a VG 1912) from my LCS and being amazed by how small they were. People must have been losing these things left and right back in the day!

It may be worth looking for an incomplete set of 5 Cent silvers, where you may be able to find them at your LCS coin shows or on eBay, or even at public auction in a job lot**. **At least that way, you may be able to accumulate quire a few at the same time.

Quote: It may be worth looking for an incomplete set of 5 Cent silvers I agree. Sometimes you can find nice coins in an incomplete set. This one came from a partial set I bought that was in a Whitman album.

I buy 90% of my coins on Facebook auction sites.

Through a friend of mine nearby, I've sold well over 100 in the last year on his facebook site.
