For $5, that was quite a steal! ... for less than $7 Cdn, you got that just in the shown coins, let alone the Brit silver. Good job. Did Jeff Zaritt have a table there? He Always sold foreign coins by the pound.

Take a closer look at the toonie on the right , can't tell for sure but it may be a fake one, what year is that one? and look at the rev side of the other one.

I snapped these up from the coin/stamp shop in Brigfhton yesterday along with a 1907 Canadian quarter and a Portuguese silver coin. You don't see Newfoundland coins much in English coin shops!   Please could someone explain to me how the Newfies managed for coins before they joined Canada in 1949? The 25c and 50c were last struck in 1919 and the 20c in 1912. Did they use Canadian coins for higher values or just make do with the 1, 5 and 10 cent coins? |

I don't know if this answers your question, NumisRob. "Before joining Canada in 1949, Newfoundland was not a Canadian province, but an independent British Dominion. As its own country, Newfoundland minted and used its own currency which circulated alongside British and Canadian money. Newfoundland's coins were struck at The Royal Mint in London, the Birmingham Mint, and—during the World Wars—at the Royal Canadian Mint in Ottawa."
