I know zilch about Canadian coins, did a quick Google and still remain clueless—would this indeed be a proof, or proof-like? How does one tell the difference? Report this Post to the Staff

thedollarman Pillar of the Community Canada 4911 Posts	Posted 07/01/2016 8:18 pm your coin is a proof like strike, many were struck and it is basically a bullion value coin, although it is a great piece with a lot of beauty. Feel free to call me Will. Report this Post to the Staff
