Indian1 Pillar of the Community United States 3640 Posts	Posted 05/30/2010 08:29 am I picked up a 1907 Can. quarter and noticed it is in the coin alignment and not the medal. Is this normal for this year ? Report this Post to the Staff

1945V Valued Member Canada 386 Posts	Posted 05/30/2010 08:43 am This is normal. 5 cent, 10 cent, 25 cent and 50 cent coins have all had the coin alignment like American coins up until about 1907. Canadian pennies have all had medal alignment since 1858. Since 1908 all Canadian coins had medal alignment. Edited by 1945V 05/31/2010 8:24 pm Report this Post to the Staff

coinsnpaper Valued Member Canada 480 Posts	Posted 05/31/2010 03:32 am Let's make that all Canadian 1 cents have medal strikings since 1858, with some few exceptions, and other Canandian coins since 1908, when the coins were made in Canada. There are scarce coinage-struck 1858 1 cent, a 1919 5 cent (1 known), a 1968 silver 10 cent (1 known), a 1965 25 cent (1 known), 1967 $1 coin, and 1992 Constitution $1 coins; plus the interesting 1992 NB and NWT, and 2000 Jan and Jun 25 cents with coinage or 90 degree strikings.

hhbkiddo Pillar of the Community Canada 1248 Posts	Posted 05/31/2010 10:06 am What is a reasonable and probable explanation for ONLY 1 coin in a year to be struck that way? did a mint employee simply "play" around? Report this Post to the Staff
coinsrfun Pillar of the Community Canada 693 Posts	Posted 05/31/2010 4:53 pm HHB, as you know, I own numerous 5 cent coins with the "wrong alignment" including the 1967 and a 62, as well as a 64 65 and 66. For a statement to be made of "1 of", or "1 known" is simply never correct by the book companies. Just my thoughts on it. Report this Post to the Staff
