SBAcollector New Member United States 3 Posts	Posted 06/18/2014 01:22 am I found in my left over change from a recent trip a 1951 Canadian George VI small cent. I flipped the coin over and something immediately struck me as odd. American coins the reverse is always in a flipped position (upside down)from the obverse and Canadian coins both sides are always the same (right side up). However, this penny was set up the same way as an American coin. Any thoughts? Is this rare? Any thoughts on what it could be worth. Any information would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, J Report this Post to the Staff
