Learjet Pillar of the Community Australia 655 Posts	Posted 04/05/2008 11:55 am Found a couple of Canada 10c in amongst my bag of Australian 5 cents today. First time I've seen Canadian 10 cents. That's a small 10 cent coin you guys have. It passed as a 5 cent in the bag. In fact I found two, a 1990 and a 2001 "P" mintmark volunteers. I figure I've doubled my money already! The 2001 coin, is that supposed to be a circulation coin? It's very rare right? Already planning the beach house and yacht. Report this Post to the Staff

Learjet Pillar of the Community Australia 655 Posts	Posted 04/05/2008 7:35 pm Lol thanks guys. What does the "P" mintmark stand for? Report this Post to the Staff
Sap Moderator Australia 16806 Posts	Posted 04/06/2008 05:08 am The "P" isn't a "mintmark" in the traditional sense. On Canadian coins, "P" is short for "plated steel", as opposed to the solid nickel or cupronickel the coins used to be struck from. Don't say "infinitely" when you mean "very"; otherwise, you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite. - C. S. Lewis Report this Post to the Staff

snaz Valued Member Canada 351 Posts	Posted 04/07/2008 01:23 am sorry.. The P stands for... P.. LOL it was a coin put out for vending machine companies to test all their new machines with. But a few leaked into circulation, So the mint put more out so that the demand wouldn't be outrageous and collectors wouldn't be paying thousands of dollars for the couple thousand they minted Report this Post to the Staff
