tripoli Pillar of the Community Canada 867 Posts	Posted 10/19/2016 8:23 pm I own the same thing....5 1968 dollars in what appears to be RCM piloform.....sorry, can't add much else. It was probably a marketing campaign to introduce the Nickel version beginning in 1968 after "they" debased our coins. Probably an over produced year, with about 5,600,000 produced in 1968, with each year afterwards showing fewer minted. Edited by tripoli 10/19/2016 8:26 pm Report this Post to the Staff
