I think this was a gift for my graduation from my parents. Its been locked up and forgotten since the early 80s. I'll have to find out what its worth.   |

You are right its great finding stuff you forgot about. I liked this. With all respect, but in my opinion - this is what all our collections are for relatives: "some circulation stuff, here and there bullions, bunch of silver NCLT and some gold coins, sets and single boxes" Since, if to think well - no art, no rarity, no importance here. History and legacy? C'mon....history this is the events and studies, and not something, that was minted at that time or something with the related pictures. |

One of my favourites - designed by Dora de Pedery-Hunt, who later designed the Queen's portrait on the obverse of our coinage.

Ya I thought Canadians Coins numbers were what I had found. It was locked in a safe in a strong box and now its going back to my safety deposit box, now that I've got some pics. I see there is one on ebay for 1400$.  My kid is gonna love me when she gets it. There is more to find as I'm taking over my dad's collection , he's getting to old to handle it all. I don't know where to start. |
