I have finally got my coin flips from China.... never again. lol But still new to collecting coins, and also collecting Coleman lanterns. (The 1996 Attached 6 Nickel is on ebay for a stupid price. only cause I am unsure of selling it right now.) Anyways these are the coins I am looking to get your opinions on for grades! First: 1966 Dime   Second: 1996 Attached 6 Nickel + Die Clash   Third: 1996 Quarter   Forth: 1999P Quarter (Test token)   Fifth: 1967 Centennial Quarter   Thanks in advance if you help with grading or opinions on these coins. cheers~! |

Not sure the grades but the clash on that 96 nickel is strong. Very nice!

As an American I'm not going to try grading those coins.
Canadian grading runs operates under a different set of standards.

Why are some of the surfaces so "grainy" and marked - were these in a PL set at one time or did you piece these coins together to make a set? China scares me, unless you were kidding.

Thanks everyone so far, to bad no one can help grade. :P But yeah when I found that 96 attached 6 + Die Clash I was super happy. found it in $40 of quarters from my bank.
All of these have been found coin roll hunting here in Saskatchewan. lol
@Mark1959 Huh I posted that I bought the coin flips from China.. not the coins, I guess I should of specified a little more. I waited 2 months to get flips to put my coins in.

And the reason why they look grainy, is I am zoomed in 4x & the sunlight shows each small scratches. When you look at them not in direct sunlight they look great 7 can only see some of the minor scratches.

Sorry as I have to join the others as a 'non-grader' because I know very little of modern clad grading.
However, I do want to complement you on your photography skills.
Nice clear pictures.

Ok-I'll have a crack at er: 1966 10 cents-Au-50 ' Cameo 1996 nickel-Awesome clash! , the beav's nose right at the Queen's nose . really cool -ef-45 , to much "noise" for AU. 1996 Quarter-AU58 1999P-A toughie , MS62 , details. 1967-The wear(?) on her cheek is severe-EF45 unless its pvc damage , then "maybe" au50 And coins finishes mentioned are normal for the issue's.  |

Thanks Canacoins for throwing some info my way. Was thinking maybe no one would grade. I can understand the grades.. But it's weird the 1996 quarter under magnifying glass looks way better than the 1999p without magnification the 96 looks untouched, but the 99 with or without you can see scratched right away... Could be the way the sun was lighting the coins.. it was cloudy, so would get bright and dim for some photos. (not sure) But thanks gives me a rough idea where some would get grade. Glad everyone is enjoying the 96 Nickel, two solid errors (three if you include the die cjip / Cud on the letter in cents) Edited in... Oh yeah about the 1967 Quarter, all the quarts I have all have the same damage in that spot.. maybe they all came from the same roll from awhile ago? cause I did buy 40 1967 quarters about a week ago. (not rolled) Edited by TomFetti
