Need to research what contracts RCM had for foreign coins in 1978.
That info can be found in the RCM published annual mint report for that year.
This will give the lead you need to determine what foreign planchet may have been used for the coin pictured.
Value will depend on what can be found for recent numismatic public auction sales for similar coins.
My guess would put the value of coin pictured in the $200 to $400 range.
Potential value would indicate to me that research suggested would be justified. good luck!
Maybe just go to Calgary Coin or other top class dealer, and they may be able to provide all of the info you need at one location.
