Looks like it has nice eye appeal... a good candidate to certify with PCGS and add to your George V 1c registry set. There are only 5 to date, certified with PCGS in mint state condition. https://www.PCGS.com/pop/detail/george-v/4297

Reviving an old thread. Canadian Coin News March 19-April 1, 2019 edition has an interesting article regarding the 1929 cents.

Speaking of an old thread Gene, you ever certify the coin on page one of this thread with PCGS?

I sold a few 1929 coppers on ebay and although there was no study done you have a medium high 9 not the high 9. I have a few that I purchased on ebay cheap but when I got them at home and did a good check I found out they were medium and not the high one.

Smallcentguy Yes that is a high nine and keep looking for a higher grade but they are allusive though.

I have a very nice one in my cents collection. I collect these Encased Coins quite avidly and I have been looking for a high nine of this one for a while. I have probably seen about 15 to 20 of these and this is the first high nine. I am not sure that this is a legitimate die study. Finding this seems actually a bit odd to me, as you would think that the manufacturer of these would have got a bag of cents all at once from the mint (these are always dated 1929). So the supply of cents they used must have come from more than one set of dies. Maybe they made a few batches. There are two different aluminum reverse dies and sometimes the aluminum dies were set up for a coinage axis US cent.
