Hi,
Could anybody please guide me to where I could find information on Canadian coin values?
If there are Internet references, guidebooks or current numismatic magazines (or whatever else), I will welcome this information.
Thanks...

Canadian Coin News includes Trends. There are other on-line versions which can and do vary greatly from Trends. Dealers use Trends as a guide.

Don't take J&M too seriously. Look at their descriptions and prices. They're copied and pasted or they miss a few issues. Look at the $5 and $10 gold - same description even though it says that 1914 is the scarcest date for both types. And since the January 2013 hoard of gold coins was released from the RCM, these prices haven't been updated and neither have they been in Trends. The 25 cents list is missing the sledge hockey issue (and so is Trends). There's a lot of copying going on in price guides so they're not to be 100% trusted. Edited by Libertad

I usually bounce back and forth between JM and CaC. Coinsandcanada seems to have the best up to date lists and grading info but I like how JM are usually still close price wise and I like how they give you pictures of varieties and such.

Thank you all for these responses... I checked them out and it seems that none of these suggestions do show any guides for modern gold commemorative coins from Canada. Did I miss the obvious? :-(
