nybird Valued Member United States 459 Posts	Posted 04/10/2011 09:50 am I have one of the Antique finish no-Canada Large Cents. Does anyone know what these are made of? I see some selling on ebay that claim silver. Is that true and if so what silver content is there? Do these coins have any value? Thanks in advance for any responses. Report this Post to the Staff

SPP-Ottawa Moderator Canada 10458 Posts	Posted 04/12/2011 4:33 pm I always wondered why the RCM decided to do that in 1998, instead of the mint's 100th anniversary in 2008. A neat coin though, however, I prefer the mirror proof set over the matte set.

pk_boomer Valued Member Canada 51 Posts	Posted 04/12/2011 9:18 pm Yeah, I've had my eye on these sets lately too. I like both sets but I think I prefer the proofs as well. Copper-plated silver - really? That's unusual. Report this Post to the Staff
