Agreed JJ Were Do you them all?

 

The raw ones like these, usually coin shows so I can look at them in hand.

 

1954 Canada cent. sellers pics:

 

Curious is it a SF or NSF? Hard to tell from the photo; regardless love the toning on it!

 

Thank You


John

 

Curious? ... ummm, what year are those 25 cent pieces? (are they brand new, 2014?)

*stevex6 edit* ... apparently they are 2013 (thanks)

 

@stevex6
Here the best photo I can take with my phone of the 1960 1 penny. Still Red I would say but a Tpg may not?

 

1922 Canada Nickel, holder's scratched like crazy, but the coin's a beauty & believe it's the far rim variety

 

not sure what you are ask me ?

 

Sorry, SF = Shoulder Fold, NSF = No Shoulder Fold are varieties of the Obverse for cents in 1953, 1954 & 1955
- on the SF the shoulder fold or dress strap goes from the front of the shoulder to the back of the shoulder and the I in DEI is centred on a denticle
- on the NSF the shoulder fold or dress strap starts from the front of the shoulder and stops at the top of the shoulder & the I in DEI is centred between two denticles.

I thought yours was a SF variety from the photo but wasn't positive.

 

here is a sweet example of a "No Shoulder Fold" ... I love them because it looks like the queen wasn't wearing a shirt (but they were considered a bit too racy for the Royal Family, so they changed the design and made Liz put-on a shirt)

... the "link" (above) allows you to zoom-in a bit and get a better idea of what I'm saying

 

it has the shoulder fold. I had to really look at it. SF

 

If You think a Tpg would Details would Red or Red Brown?
@stevex One Very Nice 1953 penny
