I've got a little free time so I'm going over some coins I've had for a while that don't fit my collection. I picked this one up as part of a lot a couple years ago & pretty much forgot I had it. I don't know a thing about grading Canadian coins & am hoping some of you can help. I understand this is a key date for the series. Not real impressed with the splotchy toning.   |

VF-35...I think this thing was burried at one point... is there any luster left?

I was thinking dipped & then toned. It's hard to make out through the grey but there does look like there might be some luster left.

Not worth risking bad feed back over. Don't know about shipping to Canada but might be convinced to do a CCF "pocket it now" if you were seriously interested. |

Don't know about shipping to Canada... Should only cost you about $2/3 bucks or so, if you put it on PIN and artdio doesn't take it, I would be interested also..  |

The '34's are a nice date... I said that I thought this one was burried b/c of the tonning... just looks like it was at one point in a humid area but it hadn't seen a lot of circulation.. that's why I thought perhaps burried... You have some people interested in this coin so I would say they see something they like.... you have a nice coin with good features...
You think this coin is VF-EF... that trends at $34 - $84... so I would suggest you put it up on the bay for a BIN of around $40 and take the first $25 or higher that's offered.. just my opinion .. sorry if I stepped on others toes but I think this coin is worth more than $2 - $3.

I think you would get significantly more than $2-3 putting it as an auction on ebay... I have some very nice coins with good underlying luster with a similar toning pattern |

I bought the coin as part of a collection locally. I know it had been sitting in a manila envelope in a safe in Alabama for 30-40 years. That might explain the toning. I also know that there were coins in the collection that had been dipped....& thought it was likely this one had been also. I don't think my pics of this coin are good enough to list on ebay. I don't list anything there without photos & a description that make everything perfectly clear. I've got more confidence in forum members to not freak out if they aren't satisfied. Not sure where you are getting the $2-3 from **. If I list here it would be priced based on ebay prices minus fees & probably with free shipping. **just reread the thread & now see where you are getting the $2-3 from. I'm pretty sure the person that posted that was referring to the shipping cost & not the price of the coin. Edited by trdhrdr007

Ohh sorry mis-read that it was shipping!
Well personally I hope you sell it to someone here on the forum.. then you know it's going to a good home at a fair price!
