Artificially toned or not, this coin is worth exactly one cent unless it is in Mint-state. I still find these in my change on a weekly basis as most people do. We would need better pics to accurately grade but yeah, not much potential on value here. Report this Post to the Staff
Pacificoin Pillar of the Community Canada 5395 Posts	Posted 03/24/2014 8:37 pm You mean Centennial I assume? Also where are you still getting one cent coins on a daily basis? We have not seen a cent in well over a year due to universal rounding. OP coin looks like it could be from one of those private put together sets the Banks gave out to customers in 1967. probably toned from the sulphur content in the packages.

zxcccxz Pillar of the Community Canada 5417 Posts	Posted 03/24/2014 8:53 pm Haha you caught me and yes I do mean centennial. Although do still get cents every week, now that I no longer have large quantities to search through I do no find many of these. Although last year around august I got 2-3 of these every 2 weeks when searching through pennies. Needless to say, my point stands, these aren't worth anything much if they are not mint-state.

Canada didn't actually start to gain independence 'til the Statute of Westminster was passed by Britain in Dec. 1931,(the same month that Canada took control of our mint from Britain)until then The British parliament had the legal right to override Canadian legislation. Canada's highest court of appeal was the British Privy Council in London 'til 1949. Our independence wasn't complete 'til 1982 when the Constitution Act allowed us to amend our own constitution, which previously was the right of the British parliament. We celebrated this with the 1982 Constitution dollar. "Dipping" is not considered cleaning... -from PCGS website Edited by DBM 03/24/2014 10:44 pm Report this Post to the Staff
