SolarPenny Valued Member Canada 234 Posts	Posted 02/28/2017 6:22 pm After sorting and going through a relatively large bag of nickels I got a while ago I was able to find quite a few different ones that lined up with the photos on the coinsandcanada website under "more errors and varieties". I will probably hang onto the 1947 dot and 1957 bug tail as those seem to be more commonly collected. I picked out the rest more or less just for fun but they don't quite fit in with the rest of my collection so I am on the fence about keeping them. I have tried searching through ebay completed listings for an idea on value but wasn't able to find much. Are any of the other varieties I found worth much? Here is a list of what I found: 1940 - Die Crack at left of reverse 1940 - Die Crack Top of Obverse 1941 - Double CANADA 1943 - Die Crack under king 1943 - Die Crack under king 1943 - Die Crack under left leaf 1943 - Die Crack under left leaf 1944 - Die Crack on left leaf 1945 - Die Crack above D in CANADA 1945 - Die Crack above N in CANADA 1946 - Die Clash behind the king 1947 - Dot 1951 - Double CENTS 1957 - Bug Tail 1965 - Die Clash around beaver 1968 - Dot between 6 and 8 1968 - Dot on beavers tail Report this Post to the Staff

Machine Doubling isn't widely collected in Canada. Lots of clashes available from the 60's although a close up of that one would be interesting to see. Not much interest in dots other then the 47 and that is your most valuable coin out of this lot. I hope you had fun going through them though. That's what it is all about!
