Gold, Gold, Gold! Time to Showoff! (ツ)

Nah, different countries besides Canada didn't mint too many gold coins at all. As far as the $5 gold coin goes, it was only a three year coin 1912-1914. Odd in comparison to US standards but now they have some rarities and they seem to be selling for top dollar!

Really cool, thanks for sharing

 

I got another Hart's Gold Token, Minerva 1915. I read somewhere that these Tokens were sold at the Panama Pacific International Expo in Frisco by Farran Zerbe. If you've never heard of Farran Zerbe he was quite a character and quite the salesman, respected by many but also hated by many, including Thomas Elder.

I also got a new Mexican Gold 1/4, 1981 first year of issue. It's actually a double for me, not sure why guess I was in a buying mood!

 

Had to wait 14 days for this one…LOL

 

That is one NICE piece!

 

Yes, that's a great looking chunk of pre-33 gold! Old gold, gotta love it!

 

I have more on the way, so many choices…LOL
