Over the next few days I will be displaying a collection of canadian Large cents here.

I have an old canadian Large Cent album from ??????????// of my Father's. Some of these coins have fantastic color to them. I know almost nothing about Canadian Large Cents though, so I thought I would post some pics and see what some of you folks thought of them.

There are quite a few, and I will add pics as the days go by, when I find the time to photo them.

The 07-H is a semi key coin and yours looks pretty nice wear wise. I would call it EF-AU and is probably worth $70+ or so. I'm not too sure about the colour though. The image makes it look AT to me but I could be mistaken. Do you know the history of the coins? Were they in an album or sulfur contained envelops?

Check the 1859 and 1891 coins for varieties.

They are housed in a Whitman folder, similar to a Dansco. They have been in my Father's posession for 30 years, and my Uncl'es for decades before.

No luck with the 58 naturally. I did post a few more including the 59 you asked about.
