Canadian coinage again...

Howdy,

Please excuse my darkside (greyside I guess) ignorance. For .925 and .800 Silver Canadian coins....was it just dimes, quarters, halves and dollars? Were there any other denominations made in silver?

    There were silver 5 cent pieces until 1921, also. The Province of Canada (before the Confederation) struck a 20 cent piece in 1858, New Brunswick struck a 20 cent piece in 1864, and Newfoundland struck 20 cent pieces up until 1912. Both New Brunswick and Newfoundland joined the Dominion later and adopted Canadian coins.
