TheForce Pillar of the Community United States 4870 Posts	Posted 08/27/2009 8:22 pm I believe there were some varieties in 1965. And '62-'67 are silver. Report this Post to the Staff

chequer Pillar of the Community Canada 4227 Posts	Posted 08/27/2009 8:46 pm The '67s were really what got me interested in coin collecting as a child. There weren't many commemorative coins circulating then, so these really stood out. The designer, Alex Colville (a world reknowned painter), lives very close to me. His work is amazing. Technically perfect. Anyway, as mentioned, the varieties are in the '65 set. These are all terrific sets to have though. Also, someone more interested in varieties may have more information for you.

1945V Valued Member Canada 386 Posts	Posted 08/28/2009 09:13 am Several varieties exist. As expected when an obverse is changed (young to mature queen, 1964 to 1965), the mint produces several variations until they get it right. Same thing occured in 1953 with SF/NSF. For dollar coins, known varieties are: 1) Small vs large beads on the outer rim of the 1965 obverse. 2) Small vs large beads also exist in 1966 3) A detached rear jewel on the tiara + medium beads also exist to complicate matters further in 1965 4) Blunt vs pointed "5" in 1965 date 5) The 1967 Dollar comes in concave and flat fields on the obverse side Varieties 1) and 4) apply to 1 cent coins. No known varieties for 5, 10, 25 and 50 cent coins. Report this Post to the Staff

1cent Pillar of the Community Canada 1051 Posts	Posted 08/30/2009 7:09 pm Those are the gross coin weights. Take the total and multiply by 0.8 (80% pure silver) and you get 1.1 ounces of silver per set. Report this Post to the Staff
