@ChangeInHistory is there a known bugs bunny for that year and mm? It sure looks like on on the obverse. I can’t see the die clash on the reverse but, maybe you can

Thanks, I'll have to look into it. I liked the luster and clean look to it.

Here's the RCM page on it. The specs are on the right.

https://www.mint.ca/store/coins/3---square-sterling-silver-coin-the-beaver-2006-prod2400173

It's 925 silver gilded in 24K gold.

Interestingly they refer to the coin as "specimen", not proof or uncirculated. There's a couple on eBay graded by NGC as SP69 and SP70.

Also the prices are all over the place from the high $200's to just around $40.

EDIT: forgot the darn link!

I have one of these but the black foam ring made it tone. I was concerned if I have it graded by pcgs they would knock it down a few points. But looking at the 69 trueview I think mine should be fine.

What the heck is "Valueview"?

I haven't seen a PCGS one graded, but NGC uses a non-edge view gasket. I wonder what PCGS would use?

I think for world coins and ones that go through the sniffer you get a “value view”
You can’t click on them to see larger either

It works for me. I get the full size big pick (4400 x 2220) at this link: https://www.pcgs.com/valueview/3-2006-2011/2006-3-square-beaver-gold-plated-silver/4439?sn=149117&h=pop

Looking at the large pics it appears the toned areas are spots where the gold wore off and the silver toned dark.

just a couple shots from 2021 happy birthday and birth sets - really strong strikes on these; beautiful coins and really nice to see that '2021'

happy birthday set penny obverse

birth set dime reverse

also, this was printed on a flap of the cardboard box the 2019 youth coin & currency set came in - anyone know what this is?

[edited as I referred to happy birthday set as congratulations set --- obv got that 2021 w proof eagle on my mind 😅]

aaaand, the tuskeegee reverse

happy birthday set penny obverse

is it just me, or are the date and mintmark gigantic? are these at the scale they've been recently, or are they somewhat bigger? looks almost comically large to me, but haven't had coffee yet this morning, so ...

Thanks! I really love the color, condition and look!

What's interesting is that this one came with no provenance!

bearcave

@joeykoins I bought a roll of Delaware 1999 quarters in 1999 and I thought they would be worth grading now. Right! They are best 65 and worth $5.

BST purchase. Didn’t need it for a set but it will look good in the gold stack.

CoinHoarder

Some 80% Canadian quarters & dimes. ASW right at 1.33 troy ounces. Bought off the Precious Metals BST in a problem free transaction.

arrived yesterday
cell phone photos, sorry

Thrilled with this new $5 Indian courtesy of forum member clarkbar04. I saw this coin on a $5 gold thread, and thought it would be perfect for my fledgling date set. Very lucky for me he was willing to part with it. I think it is my favorite in the set so far.

ZoidMeister

If the Post Office is telling the truth, this should be waiting for me at work tomorrow. It was shipped 12/15. I only have one more item shipped weeks before Christmas to arrive.

Here are my latest:

Two New Purchases this year and both are upgrades. The 1948 s was the coin that kept talking to me until I bought it 3 weeks later. Just something about the strike and color that got me. Upgraded from a MS 66 to a 67 and Cac.

Second Coin is the 1964 DDR 801 and is MS 64 and upgrades the AU 50 I had in my Set. Another really Nice coin for the Grade and was picked up from member @davewesen

Enjoy Tom

I know this is a very common coin. But, I figured for $13. delivered...why not?
