This shows on the rim "Made in Canada". Has number 005694 and RSC on rim also. Weight is 23.0 I do not believe it is silver but wondering what the number and RSC mean. Got this from from a neighbor who was going into assisted living. * Moved by Staff to a more appropriate forum. * Report this Post to the Staff

SamCoin Pillar of the Community United States 3237 Posts	Posted 08/21/2023 1:46 pm Is this a variety and error question? Seems like it should go under commemoratives at any rate, not US modern variety/error coins. Edited by SamCoin 08/21/2023 1:47 pm Report this Post to the Staff
Dearborn Moderator United States 95200 Posts	Posted 08/21/2023 2:42 pm The number may be a serial number Collecting since 1972. Learning from then on "Tell me and I forget. Teach me and I remember.

Sap Moderator Australia 16810 Posts	Posted 08/21/2023 8:36 pm I would assume the number to be a serial number. Here's a 1973 North Dakota dollar listed on Numista, which also has the same markings on the edge (though the number is of course different). That one is clearly marked "Lombardo", for the Lombardo Mint, a private mint in Canada, so I would assume your South Dakota dollar also was struck by that mint. However, this does not resolve the meaning of "RSC", which appears to be the initials of whichever individual or company owned the copyright to both dollars. Don't say "infinitely" when you mean "very"; otherwise, you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite. - C. S. Lewis Report this Post to the Staff
