 to the CCF There's not much value in the Mountie quarters unless you find a rare Large Bust. Your 65 Nickel has to have either 119 or 138 beads, there is no 127 beads. Best to show pictures if you want accurate information or else we are just guessing.

Which side of my 1965 Nickel should I be counting? And also how do u tell large bust from small bust? Another question, the 1969 dime? We're all dimes of that year misprinted? Or was there a certain few that were a little different? I only started looking into my change when the wife showed me a tiktok talking about this $10,000 dime #128076;#127996; Good morning to all and thanks for help dude and dudettes

Also found those dimes, the one had this ring going through the coin so I put it aside. I had a similar thing going on with a loonie the ring goes through cananda and scuffs some of the imaging. Don't know if this was manufactured this way, or has been tarnished, but it looks as if the coin was made this way. I'll find where I put it and post a picture

Suggest posting one coin per topic--allows us to focus our attention on one coin. Also allows for future forum searchers to find a topic's 'coin' much more efficiently. Thanks.

I recommend a Charlton Standard Catalogue. It will show you what to look for. You should also invest in a decent loupe (magnifying glass).

Check out coinsandcanada.com, that will cover most of what you need and is free
The circular marks are from vending machines, parking meters or coin counters, for most coins it makes them worth face value.
Count the side with the queens portrait.
There are a few 1969 dimes worth big money, but very rare.
