loonielewy Pillar of the Community Canada 1803 Posts	Posted 02/11/2018 09:20 am If they are silver, that's what I gather from your description, they are proof. If they are nickel, they are circulation finish. "We are poor little lambs...who have lost our way...Baa...Baa...Baa" In memory of those members who left us too soon...
