I'd like to keep maybe the 3 best Canadian pieces and sell the rest. I can take pics of anything needed, however I've had a awful time taking good pics of the Canadian coins with my camera.
Also , is this website the best place for Canadian sales, or would there be another good forum for Canadian sales?
1833 half penny token upper Canada
1842 half penny bank of montreal
1844 half penny bank of montreal
1850 half penny bank of upper Canada
1890 One cent
1895 one cent
1913 One cent
1914 One cent
1917 one cent
1919 one cent
1927 one cent
1900 5 cent
1910 5 cent

I dont know much about half pennys but I would keep them... also keep the the quarter and 10cents because they possibly have the most value... But I would keep it all though, really nice coins. Also it depends on what grades the coins are. Pictures would really help  |

Keep what you like... sell what you don't like.
If it's just about the money then your going to sell them all anyways so...

Would any of you know offhand the appreciation on these coins?
I randomly run into foreign coins and try to make absolutely certain I keep Canadians because they seem to be popular. The problem is, I don't know if I'm willing to learn grading, types ,ect.
On a fun note I got a 1950 quarter from a local carryout last week ;)

Well most Americans I know hate getting Canadian change and have a special jar they put it all into. Every coin probably represents a loss to them. But the coins don't get anymore wear on them! |

Hi, schockergd, if your serious about getting rid of your Canadian coins put them in the BIN Auction Forum, I'm sure you could probably sell them there.  |

And I love it! While I'm not a fan of the older stuff, I love keeping the modern 80% stuff and the 99.9 nickels. I know up north it's hard to get the older nickels but here I would venture to say 80% of the coins are pre-81. How would be the best way to determine values for the coins prior to putting them as BINs on this site? I've also got about 4 Victoria 5c and 10c coins with the date warn off, is there any good method for finding that out, or would the best bet be to take pictures and have you all look at them?

Keep the 2 dimes and the quarter - their value will rise with the price of bullion silver. The others don't have a lot of numismatic value. Check the 1900 1/2 dime to see if it's has the wide 0's - if yes, then keep that one and get rid of the poorest quality dime.

It's a decent oval 0 five cent silver. Keep it. I notice a common labelling error in your collection. One I see all the time and I'm not completely sure why. You have an 1893 large cent marked as an 1895. No problem there, just a curiosity in the hobby.
