coinsearcher83 Pillar of the Community United States 1358 Posts	Posted 07/03/2011 1:34 pm to the forums! Maybe it's an old half-dime, and the date is so worn you misread it? Are you sure it's the exact same size as a dime, or is it a bit smaller? Report this Post to the Staff
glenzy1 Pillar of the Community Canada 1554 Posts	Posted 07/03/2011 3:15 pm What you've described is possibly a silver Canada, Victorian 1889 nickel (fishscale) in very poor condition. Glenn Edited by glenzy1 07/03/2011 3:16 pm Report this Post to the Staff
Sap Moderator Australia 16859 Posts	Posted 07/03/2011 6:30 pm I would ask, "Are you sure it's Canadian?", because what you're describing sounds like a 5 cents from some other Commonwealth country. Five cents from Australia, New Zealand, Fiji etc are all about the same size as a Canadian / US dime. "5 on the top left side" sounds most like a Fiji 5 cents, and 1969 is a very common date (being the first year of issue), though those have the word "cents" on them as well. Don't say "infinitely" when you mean "very"; otherwise, you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite. - C. S. Lewis Report this Post to the Staff
