I heard he's living in Colorado and met himself a new lady . Maybe she don't like coins, only a guess .

 

Canada, small cents

 

Canada 5 cent silver, 3 different monarchs.

 

Time for a new lady if she's not into coins. LOL

 

Does this count? It's actually pre-Canada. I have two of these now, might need to start another binder soon.

 

Bank token .
yes it count ..

 

I have always considered the Canadian Half dollar reverse as ONE of the Best coin designs......

 

Just found today

I saw the reverse first and just thought it was a really worn dime, then i saw the obverse. That guy doesn't look like that queen.

As found, bath coming

Upper Canada one penny bank token 1857

 

Whoa, that's a beauty!

 

Really? Maybe this half penny (same date, also Upper Canada) is also in fairly nice condition.

 

a few new Canadians

 

Take a close look at your 1919. There was an episode of "traveling mechanical/machine doubling" evident in the Canada and sometimes part of Cent as well. The doubling started at the C and, on some coins, the doubling is seen as far as the D in Canada & just the E in Cent. I imagine that it happened that way as the locks/stays on the die kept getting looser and looser, allowing more left to right movement. The one that got as far as the D doubling are very hard to find. Some scarce ones also have the 9's punch doubled as well. The scarce ones of them, Griffin assigned a Rarity 8, which is as rare as any Cent that Griffin catalogued. In the repunched 9's that he described, "the open center 9's were repunched with a narrow 9 oval punch" tool. I've only found one in 20 years of looking.
