Your pic looks a lot like the photo in my Charlton Canadian Coins. But it's listed the other way around - Small 5 over Large 5.

Close - the photo in Charlton is from a higher grade coin, numbers are sharper.

Smitty - nice find! What does the rest of the piece look like?

Yes, I agree it is a 5/5.

Yup, I'd say so.

Numismatics · December 7, 2005 6:35AM

For the grade, I would say VG8. Any other opinions?

If you were a dealer selling it, it would be F15. If you were a dealer buying it, it would be G4.
