I have spent the last 3 hours looking for prices of coins that I have. My father pasted away recently and I am trying to find out the prices of his coins. They are mostly Canadian coins so I thought I would give it a try, here at the forum. I have included a picture of a 1985 Canadian Silver Dollar - The Voyageur design (canoe). My father has five of them. I did read though that usually the coins should be protected in one way or another. I cleaned them all up and they look great. Before I sell these 5 Silver dollars I need to know the price or maybe I should wait? I don't really know. I would appreciate all information about this 1985 Canadian Silver Dollar. Thanks a bunch!

Unfortunately, your 1985 coins have no silver in them and would not be worth much more than face value. Report this Post to the Staff

And by checking on ebay I can see the price is worth only $1.00. Thanks again everyone. I will continue to look through my father's coins. Susan Report this Post to the Staff
