Hi !

I buy some coin on ebay and I receive it !

Here is the result

New-Coin-Receive-!

New-Coin-Receive-!

#1 It's 50¢ of 1916

#2 It's a another 50¢ of 199 ( I love this reverse design )

#3 It's 25¢ of 1907 but it look very strange, I don't have any other in this period to make some comparaison, my scale is not the better it have 5.7 G and I make I test with a 1929 and it's write 5.8. THe real weight of a 1929 is 5.83G and 5.81 G for 1907. Any idea ?

#4 It's a 25¢ of 1967

#5 and 6 are 2 other 25¢ of 1968.

Just to be sure...

- The silver are not magnetic... right ?

- In 1967 and 1968 ( for quarter) does some are magnetic ? Probably the 1968 on nickel ?

- It is a good idea to clean coin in "light" soap to remove finger mark ?

Thanks !

The silver coins are not magnetic.

In 1968, the magnetic ones are nickel, and the non-magnetic ones are silver.

Yves, don't clean with soap...best to use acetone...dip for a few seconds then lightly pat dry with cotton cloth...no rubbing

The 1907 looks fine,F15 actually.Perhaps corrosion,a tenth of a gram is less than 2%, not a problem for a worn coin IMO

No I collect all Canadian coin. My collection of 1¢ is very aadvancedit mist only few and same thing for the 5¢ in nickel.

I buy them on ebay, I see that the 25¢ of 1907 are cleaned. I buy 2 X 25¢ of 1968 I don't know for what lol I already have them, 3 error the same day hahah. I will just resell it for silver on ebay, I will not loose a lot.

I'm not very very happy with the 25¢of 1967, I buy them for uncirculated, it's very borderline for a uncirculated.

I had buy some coin this winter but I don't had scan other.

My preferate design is this one like the 50¢ of 1955, I like it a lot.

For now, I thing that I will try to advence my silver 5¢ and 50¢.

I have a lot of hobby, I must split my cash lol

THanks !
