Some listings like the 2009 struck through, was listed as a 2009 toonie only with no mention of the error and a very poor photo to boot.

A great grouping, well done! It's difficult NOT to keep staring at that double struck '67 dollar.

Nicely done darryl! You got some great deals on those!

I keep looking at my 1872 A/V NGC AU55 that I got for $980 last month (Trends: $18,000)...somehow, I just can't see myself ever topping, or even matching that.

I also got a 1858 10c AU58 Position Marker for $250...probably one of the highest graded known...

Very Very Nice danlos! Fantastic buys!
Some people slam ebay because of the so called expensive fees they have however, "one", can make a small fortune if they want to be patient.
Where the heck was I when I missed the opportunity to bid on that 1872 A/V AU55!

Darryl...I thought I was bidding on a regular 1872 50c (I'm starting to get into the Vicky 50 cents in AU)...and didn't see it in the pictures either.

Only when I received it and took my loupe out...I fell out of my chair...I think PCGS has graded only 2 higher...

The 1872 A/V 50c is almost impossible to find in EF+...its a top 3 coin, and a very important part of Canadian heritage :)

Looks like you got some awesome errors at great prices. I personally like the 5c missing plating the most. Did you get them from ebay Canada or ebay.com?

Scissel all of them came from ebay. ca
The plating error was bought about 8 months ago.
Looking at your avatar I would guess that the off centre 67 nickel would be of interest to you.

I know of at least three collectors who would love that off-centre 1967 5c...

Danlos, on the 67 double struck, correct me if I am wrong but it was my understanding that most if not all double, triple, and flip struck were back door jobs so how is one graded proof-like. Most others were MS.

Its Darryl and I wish I had that answer for you!
I have been asked the same question by one other. I purchased the coin raw and sent it in to PCGS for grading. What you see is how it came back graded!
Either PCGS messed up or they know something that we do not.
I will check their Pop Reports to see if they have graded any others like this!

Oh and by the way priorpence...Welcome to the Forum!
