Hi, I recently purchased this uncirculated Canadian 1919 Silver 5 cent piece, and was just wondering as to the grade. If anybody could help me out, that would be much appreciated. Thanks, Peter Z
I'm a Canadian Vicky Large Cent person, so 5 cents aren't my expertise. From the photos, it's hard to tell. Geo's mustache, the beads on the crowns, and eyebrows are the high points and I can't see if there is wear. It's a fairly easy to acquire coin (7.8 mil), but MS-60 should Trend retail at about $40 US or $60 Canadian.

Tough to say, i cant see any wear but i cant see any luster either, so ill go ms63 I think @longshot is guud at these
I looked earlier, but didn't comment because the luster doesn't show. Different lighting would help. Can't say positively that it's uncirculated, but it could be. Looks like it could be quite nice, I see contact marks on George's neck and under the date, MS63 range is my guess.
