I find it a little unsettling, lol. I swear i see the same 2000 nickel, all the time. It's like coin deja vue.
Do the states come in both proof and business? If so, i don't think i have any S business. The ATB i have a bunch of S business, and even 2 proofs, but no state business. *edit I'm not so sure @Beardigger. Looks like they have proof and silver proof, but no business in the states. *edit edit Check out how those "business" lined up? That wasn't planned
I'd like to thank @Cheech9712 for getting me to look through some Canadian quarters for their folio. I thought silver ended in 1964, for some reason, across the globe. Not in Canada, 50% silver. There were 5, but i just had to send one out to say thanks Question, why do these look so good at 50% silver, but the 1942-1945 silver nickels in circulation all look destroyed? It's not the extra 20 years. These are so shiny! No toning at all. Just curious.
If so read the 7th post on this thread but overall read everything if you like.An error is not 50% but 35% and it was also because of the odd metal composition-56% copper,35% silver and 9% manganese. https://www.coincommunity.com/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=60737.
CoinJockey, remember that some of the 1968 Canadian quarters are nickel instead of 50% silver. Quick magnet test will easily determine which is which, as the nickel ones will stick. Or you can hear the "ring" of silver....
Oh no. I didn't see that part. They're all nickel. I didn't check the one i sent @Cheech9712. Hopefully it's a part silver one. Thanks for the tip @dano
Good thing i found some real silver today. Late delivery showed up, lucky me. But first, Nothing special, just a prism, laser etched onto this thing.
