    No idea about overpaying but it looks nice.

    EF40 trends at $50CAD, AU50 at $125CAD. You did OK.

    Canadian and provincial coinage has some very cool issues. I think most folks appreciate these much more when they begin to learn about the history of them.

    A numismatic world unto itself, tons of cool issues, some with a tendency towards remarkable toning.
    The large cents are particularly appealing; nice pick
    up.
