VTS - Canadian Large Cents

JohnZ

Here's something to start this thread, after spoon's idea.

1916, UNC. Now let's see what all you've got...

Just a reminder: I'm gonna steal your pictures for the website unless you say no!

(Credit will be given, but let me get back to you on gathering that info once the foundation's down.)

JohnZ

My pictures aren't worth stealing, but if you want 'em, you can have 'em.

PEI Cent - do Maritimes count?



Steal 'em . . . bad pics anyway.

Very nice cents, JohnZ and MacCrimmon.

Do you know what grade your PEI cent would be, Mac? Just curious

NGC graded it MS64RD. I agree with that assessment as it's nice for a 64, it has 'hard' PL surfaces with no marks worth mention. I would imagine it is downgraded for the very light print on the obv.....at least that's my take.

Well, if this works here is a sort of Canadian, sort of large cent

No idea of the grade on this. I picked it up on the bank of the Atnarko (sp?) river when I was eleven. My uncle was fishing for salmon and I was bored so I started digging around and this popped up:

Elverno,

From what I can tell from the scan, it looks like an AU to MS60 Brown to me.

Nice coins, everyone

Here's a nice unc 1936 Newfoundland cent from my collection.





Please excuse the poor pics that my scanner took. I have to take these out of the 2 X 2's or get a digital camera.

That's a beautiful token, cosmic. I have several of them in both penny and half-penny denominations, but none of them as nice as yours. I love the devices - even more so than many of the "official" pennies.

I got lucky with this one. I found it in my local dealers World Coin junk boxes. It is a great coin with really high relief.
