Bertensgrad Pillar of the Community United States 1192 Posts	Posted 04/29/2015 12:42 am I'm thinking about creating a short year set of canadian non silver nickels and small cents but I don't know how many coins that were include in each since I don't know canadian series. Were there ever mint marks and is there any major varieties I could include. I got a decent score and start on it at the coin store today. I think I got part of a dumped collection they wasn't interested in or some sort of old tourist stash. I get to go through their junk cup of non silver Canadian coins that they take back to Canada to be spent on trips at face. I get to buy whatever in the cup at half it's face value in the US or I can trade 1:1 for large denominational coins for their cents and nickels with quarters etc that I happen to find on magnets etc. I looked today and it was full of cents and nickels, quickly looking it over I saw one dating 1920 so I aggreed to buy all the nickels and cents 1:1 at about $8 in junk canadian coins I have found. Anyways I got over 18 George V cents with only one repeat year in about vf condition. I also found like a pound and a half of George IV nickels and cents. I know they aren't worth much in worn condition but I can't beat the price 1:1 for money I find that I can't spend. Though even if I paid US .005 cent for a almost 100 year coin it would be great.

Here's the list with varieties that I included in my set but it is definitely not a complete list: 1920-1946 (22,23,24,25 are the keydates) 1947 1947 with maple leaf, blunt 7 1947 with maple leaf, pointed 7 1948-52 1953 Shoulder Fold 1953 No Shoulder Fold 1954-64 1965 Large Beads 1965 Small Beads 1966 1967 (commemorative) 1968-84 1985 Blunt 5 1985 Pointed 5 1986-2001 2002 Magnetic 2002 Non Magnetic 2003 Magnetic Crowned Reverse 2003 Non Magnetic Crowned Reverse 2003 Magnetic Uncrowned Reverse 2003 Non Magnetic Uncrowned Reverse 2004-07 both magnetic and non magnetic 2008 magnetic (For 2008 non magnetic I used one from a proof set) 2009-2012 both magnetic and non magnetic (the 2010 magnetic is rare I think and might have only come in sets) Hope this helps you out, I am curious to see what others will say.

purelywasted Pillar of the Community Canada 1505 Posts	Posted 04/29/2015 02:04 am Try the pcgs basic registery set. It is a good start, only a few had mintmarks in your date range, but those were in pl sets. Except 1968 dime that was minted in Philly. Report this Post to the Staff
