OcalaFlorida Pillar of the Community United States 2824 Posts	Posted 04/07/2014 10:05 pm How Many Different Varieties in Canadian Cents 1920-2012? Note: I collect mostly from circulation bank rolls I find in Florida or pieces mixed into Lincoln cents collection I have acquired. I just started by album my today after receiving a cool unisafe album in the mail. I collect Lincoln cents but in doing so I had about 900 Canadian cents in varied quality. It looks like a lot of fun I did a little research and found and combined list to come up with the below checklist of 171 coins. Is that right? and what are a few of the top error coins? 1920-2012 Canadian Cent Album 1920 - Large 1920 - Small 1921 1922 1923 1924 1925 1926 1927 1928 1929 - Low 9 1929 - High 9 1930 1931 1932 1933 1934 1935 1936 1936 - Dot 1937 1938 1939 1940 1941 1942 1943 1944 1945 1946 1947 1947 - Blunt 7 - Maple Leaf 1947 - Pointed 7 - Maple Leaf 1948 - A to denticle 1948 - A Off Denticle 1948 - A To Small Denticle 1949 - A to denticle 1949 - A Off Denticle 1950 1951 1952 1952 - Double 952 1953 - NSF 1953 - SF 1953 - NSF - Double 953 1953 - NSF - Hanging 3 1953 - NSF - Double hanging 3 1953 - NSF - Double 1953 1954 - NSF 1954 - SF 1954 - SF - Hanging 4 1955 - NSF 1955 - SF 1955 - SF - Hanging 5 1956 1956 - Hanging 6 1957 1957 - Hanging 7 1957 - Double Hanging 7 1958 1958 - Hanging 8 1959 1959 - Hanging 9 1960 1960 - Hanging 0 1961 1961 - Hanging 1 1962 1962 - Harp 1962 - Guitar 1962 - Hanging 2 1962 - Double hanging 2 1962 - Double 962 1962 - Missing M 1962 - Triple Hanging 2 1963 1963 - Hanging 3 1963 - Double hanging 3 1963 - Triple hanging 3 1964 1964 - Extra spine 1964 - Hanging 4 1964 - Double Hanging 4 1964 - Missing G 1964 - Missing MG 1964 - Dot 1965 - Small Beads - Pointed 5 1965 - Small Beads - Blunt 5 1965 - Large Beads - Pointed 5 1965 - Large Beads - Blunt 5 1966 1967 1967 - Double Date 1968 1969 1969 - Double 1969 1970 1971 1972 1973 1974 1975 1976 1976 - Double 6 1977 1978 1978 - Double 1978 1978 - Double 78 1978 - Double 8 1979 1979 - Double 79 1979 - Double 9 1979 - Double 979 1980 1981 1982 1983 - Near Beads 1983 - Far Beads 1984 1985 - Blunt 5 1985 - Pointed 5 1986 1987 1988 1989 1990 1991 1992 1993 1994 1995 1996 1997 ~~1997 - W~~ 1998 ~~1998 - W~~ 1999 1999 - P 1999 - Double 999 2000 ~~2000 - W~~ 2001 2001 - P 2002 2002 - P 2003 - Old Effigy 2003 - Old Effigy - P 2003 - New Effigy 2003 - New Effigy - P ~~2003 - WP~~ 2004 2004 - P 2005 2005 - P 2006 - P 2006 - Magnetic 2006 - RCM Logo - Magnetic 2006 - Non magnetic 2006 - RCM Logo 2006 - P - Non magnetic 2007 - Magnetic 2007 - Non magnetic 2008 2009 - Magnetic 2009 - Non magnetic 2010 - Magnetic 2010 - Non magnetic 2011 - Magnetic 2011 - Non magnetic 2012 - Magnetic 2012 - Non magnetic Edited by OcalaFlorida 04/07/2014 10:25 pm Report this Post to the Staff

DBM Pillar of the Community Canada 9865 Posts	Posted 04/07/2014 10:15 pm Good start. The W and WP were not struck for circulation, from sets only. "Dipping" is not considered cleaning... -from PCGS website Report this Post to the Staff

pennysaver Pillar of the Community Canada 937 Posts	Posted 04/08/2014 7:18 pm Hi OcalaFlorida I notice that you are including various hanging digits and double digits in your list. Properly these are errors, but they are repeated errors (occurring coin after coin as they are minted), so there are lots around. Since there are clashes and date doubling on most years 1937 - 2012, as well as several clashes and doubling in the King George V period, I would say that your list needs to be 2 or 3 times as long, depending on which clashes you wish to accept. Most of the hanging digits 1953 - 1964 have single and double hangers, and then have varieties of the hangers themselves, with some years having triple, quadruple, and I think the 1962 even has a quintuple hanger. Check out the coinsandcanada website and you'll find quite a few more, there. Happy hunting! Edited by pennysaver 04/08/2014 7:24 pm Report this Post to the Staff
