Alan Pillar of the Community Canada 1463 Posts	Posted 01/03/2016 9:34 pm I like the Canadian specimen strikes as well as other commonwealth specimen strikes. They sure look nice on those big nickel dollars. Report this Post to the Staff
SPP-Ottawa Moderator Canada 10456 Posts	Posted 01/03/2016 9:45 pm More varieties in the PL strikes, it really depends what catches your fancy... The proof series is also very short (1981-1987), and eye-catching...

The Double Dollar sets included the Proof Silver and the Proof Nickel dollars after 1987 the Proof Silver dollars continued but the Proof Nickel dollars were replaced with the Proof Loonie Edited by lucv13 01/04/2016 06:44 am Report this Post to the Staff
SHAFTA9a Bedrock of the Community Canada 10743 Posts	Posted 01/04/2016 1:59 pm Thanks for the info lucv13.. So, we are talking all "Voyager" dollars?...1981-1987? Edited by SHAFTA9a 01/04/2016 2:06 pm Report this Post to the Staff
wildflowerAB Pillar of the Community Canada 2845 Posts	Posted 01/04/2016 7:45 pm Between 1971 and prior to proof sets in 1981 nickel dollars were available in what was referred to as Specimen sets (or sometimes Double Dollar or Prestige Sets) and also singularly in cases (1968-76). Sources to collect nickel dollars definitely are somewhat of a hodge-podge because collector demand was greatest for the Silver Dollar that was discontinued from circulation in 1967.
