Sprucansailor Valued Member United States 188 Posts	Posted 07/01/2010 11:57 pm These are some more of the coins I picked up in San Fran. I know very little about Canadian coins, but I like all of these, especially the big "V" nickel. LOL Looking at the preview, it seems like my scanner is picking up a bunch of random shiny spots that I can not see on the coins themselves.

The V stands for both the "5" and for "Victory" during WWII. Around the very edge of the coin, on the reverse, is morse code spelled out for "victory". I like them as well.

The 1920 one cent was the first year they brought out the small cent. In fact in that year they also released the last large cent. Report this Post to the Staff
