Yes, no dei gratia on the 1911 Large Cent.

spinaker2000 · January 20, 2004 8:49AM

It doesn't say DEI GRA. It's the first year type.

WOW!!!!! I'm learning.

Too late Terry, typical for a red-neck.

Question #2

Why isn't the 1859 Large Cent listed under 'Canada' in the Charlton Catalogue?

Furtrapper · January 20, 2004 9:22AM

The 1859 large cent is not listed under Canada because Canada did not become a country until 1867 (still part of the British Colonies in 1859).

Very good furtrapper. Are you from the Great White North?

Furtrapper · January 20, 2004 12:34PM

I guess I had a little unfair advantage on this question. eh!

I from Ottawa.

Welcome to the darkside, furtrapper

By the way, is that your profession? Just curious, because my grandfather's 2 brother-in-laws did that for a living.

I'm not Canadian, but love Canadian coins. Nice to have you with us

One of the hockey teams I play for is The Furtrappers (not sure how we came up with the name). My occupation isn't that exciting.

So how does someone from Virginia become the Princess of the North and how did you get hooked on Canadian Coins?

Luvdawgs · January 21, 2004 11:12AM

I became Princess of the North because of my love of Canada and Canadian coins. I first became interested in Canadian coins when I met a very lovely
person from New Brunswick online, who later became my best friend. When I visited Canada, I stopped at coinshops there, and found that I love the
designs and quality of the Canadian coins. By the way, I am originally from Pennsylvania (a little further north than Virginia), but the real reason I was
given the the Princess of the North title is what I stated in the first sentence

What kinds of coins do you collect, Ron?

Sorry for hijacking your thread, Ajaan.

ajaan · January 21, 2004 11:14AM

Susan, hijack away. I was finished with the thread.

T for furtrapper

You live in Virginia and collect Canadian coins; I live in Canada and collect mainly US coins.

I have a large Canadian collection given my access to Canadian coins and the Royal Canadian Mint (in Ottawa).

I also have a number of coins from other countries, however, I'm not sure if I would call it a collection (still searching).

Ron

Luvdawgs · January 23, 2004 12:02PM

Ron, if there are any US coins in particular you are looking for, you can PM me. Maybe I can help you find something you need

Just give me a hollar
either here or by PM.

Am looking forward to seeing your posts in the future
