wallyb Pillar of the Community Canada 557 Posts	Posted 03/03/2023 6:30 pm There are no Tigers outside of zoos in Canada, the Lynx is much smaller and not known to be a man-eater. Cannot tell from the photos if there is some ED or just dirt. A fair bit of wear on the devices, maybe VF condition. Report this Post to the Staff
JimmyD Bedrock of the Community Canada 21610 Posts	Posted 03/03/2023 6:31 pm First of all, there are no Tigers in Canada (except in zoos), that is a Bobcat. It is made of 80% silver with a mintage of nearly 49 million. In that condition it would be worth the value of the bullion.

blackbird741 Valued Member Egypt 53 Posts	Posted 03/03/2023 6:39 pm I know very well that there are no tigers in Canada I just gave a paste to the title of the post Your mental perceptions made you think that I say that there are tigers in Canada but I did not mean that but thank you for the information.

DBM Pillar of the Community Canada 9864 Posts	Posted 03/03/2023 6:42 pm As mentioned, in that condition, your coin is worth melt value. They were struck in both 80% and 50% silver. No quick, easy, nor economical way to differentiate the two. Bullion dealers buy and sell them as 65% silver. "Dipping" is not considered cleaning... -from PCGS website Edited by DBM 03/03/2023 6:47 pm Report this Post to the Staff
blackbird741 Valued Member Egypt 53 Posts	Posted 03/03/2023 6:46 pm DBM Do they buy it at the price of a gram of silver? Or do they buy it at a lower price and then sell it to profit? Report this Post to the Staff

blackbird741 Valued Member Egypt 53 Posts	Posted 03/03/2023 6:51 pm I expected that of course they would buy many coins for a low price and then they would sell them as you told me at the price of bullion (in grams) and so there is a chance to profit. Report this Post to the Staff

When you say Canadian Tiger in your heading, we have to assume that you meant that the animal on the coin was a Tiger. There is no way that we are able to know that you just "pasted" the word in.
