I don't think "Canada" made pre-decimal coins...

I think my 20¢ is pretty cool, but I voted for 5¢ for the sheer variety of types to be collected.

I'm surprised how few votes there are for 5cents,I thought they would be as popular as small cents.Perhaps as more people vote things will change.

I've recently come around to the large cents, simply a beautiful coin. A close second would be silver dollars.

The George V nickel of 1922 to 1936 is one of the neatest looking coin designs of all time.

1 cent, small. 5c is a very close second, as is 25c.

I was expecting to see more silver dollar collectors.

I prefer dimes. I think that they are generally affordable in VF's for Victorian and EF up to 1937 where Unc's should be the rule. Sure there are some tough dates to get in the series but bargins exist and check the junk silver boxes for great finds.

WOW, I'm a little surprised at how few collectors fancy dimes. They are my favourite decimal to collect, perhaps I'm just being bias....................LOL

nickels for me.

Dimes are nice, but eyes are getting old, and get sore after a bit of time reading that tiny writing.
