Yesterday a customer paid with a 1950 Canadian nickel, I snatched that right up!

I'm not sure if this is a proof coin I found it in circulation roll, the roll was marked with black marker on all the lock dots on the roll, every coin was 1968-2000 and a few 200-2003 but nothing later. This dime looks weird it's super shiny on the face and boat and the rest of the coin looks like a mat finish. What do you think   |

Looks like a specimen coin to me.

Never seen a dime like this in circulation, wonder if it's worth keeping in a 2×2

@coinman91, thanks. I don't think there is an special value to this but to find it in a circulation roll in this condition was pretty lucky. Iv never had a specimen coin

1st 2021. I scooped a 25 cent piece, aka, quarter. .  . Then, I dropped it on the driveway. Again. And I call Bromberg "fumble fingers".  . "We are poor little lambs...who have lost our way...Baa...Baa...Baa"

This one fits the title. A circ. coin, and a find during a household clean up. I have no idea where it came from. I don't know if it saw circulation before being entombed. It looks well into MS, but nothing special. I found out F.A.D.A is a set design/construction/manage company founded in 1976. Anyone know anything about this sucker. Is it possibly from the 1st year of the company, given to customers, or did Scotiabank give it to F.A.D.A.?   "We are poor little lambs...who have lost our way...Baa...Baa...Baa"

I received this toonie in change at a mom and pop convenience store. I suspect it is a fake. Outside of it being a nearly 20 year old coin with strong remaining lustre, it just doesn't look right to me. Anyone have any thoughts?   |

You are correct it is a counterfeit.

There is a Coinstar at a store that I frequent that is unusually productive. I've taken to calling it "The Mine." 2 weeks ago it was the quarter and the 5p. Earlier this week, 4 Loonies. Moments ago, $10 in Loons and the '62 dime. Finding silver in the wild still gives me a little rush.    |
