Greetings darkside dwellers - pretty cool 1967 proof Canadian Dollar I picked up today.

Russ

Hit a local shop and was so desperate to buy something I ended up with a 1967 Canadian proof set. Here's the Dollar:

Are the other coins in the set toned? Many of these sets have great toning.

Looks similar to the one WL sent my grandaughter Randi!

There ain't no such thing as a 1967 proof set!

If it came in the black leather case with a $20 gold piece, it's a specimen set. If it came in a red and white cardboard box it's a prooflike set (ditto if it came in a pliofilm pouch).

Both cases tended to tone the coins, and all the silver coins in an old specimen set I picked up were almost black (midnight blue, I guess).

The toning looks nice on yours.

Here's the Half:

It's in a Whitman plastic holder. Label said proof set. Shows you how much I know!

I love those. I've run across a few but nothing yet that said "buy me". That one could have done it. Very nice.

Fantastic color on both of those, Russ

Here's the Quarter:

Russ, you have to learn to write like a gray sider. It's a 50 cent piece, not a half. It's a 25 cent piece, not a quarter.

Here's the 10 cent piece:

Now you're talkin'!

They look like specimens, but it may just be your masterful photographic technique.
