ace_ftw Pillar of the Community Canada 1747 Posts	Posted 09/25/2015 12:46 pm I was called yesterday from one of my pick up banks that they had some silver dollars, and 50cent pieces. I was told right off the bat that they were all newer that 68, so there was no silver. I said I was still interested in looking. good choice on my part.... Report this Post to the Staff

ace_ftw Pillar of the Community Canada 1747 Posts	Posted 09/25/2015 4:37 pm how can you tell if this is type 2, or just a double yoke? there is a significant price difference between the 2 and on the coins and Canada website there is only the one reference shot, which looks identical to mine (just a regular double yoke, not type 2) any help would be great.

PS - I fixed your thread title too... it is a Double Yoke, not Double Yolk. One is used by oxen, and other is painfully lain by a chicken.
