They are more the Canadian Large Cent size...
Ah, you would ask! LOL! The planchet a bit rough.... [ATTACH]
Perhaps these pictures do it better service: [ATTACH] [ATTACH] In hand it does not look varnished, though the surface is somewhat reflective;...
Here is a nice coin that has an unexpectedly nice portrait (photo certainly is not as nice as actual coin though): [ATTACH]
Razz. Excellent if a bit dark. I hope you get the Franklin Mint "disease". They have struck some very great coins with lovely designs well...
I got this IMO lovely coin from the Goldberg auction, what a nice coin and a great purchase price: [IMG] Yikes I don't know how well this shows...
Thanks, and I agree. TBH, I love these big crowns; I tried to get the Widow head by regnal year but trying to find decent specimens of some is...
Ah, waiting for son to get going....The wonderful blue iridescence does not show through, but it does also show the edges and crispness of strike,...
Not a fake, simply PL. Yes, like the proof you just showed! Mine I got from Baldwins auction years ago and will post later today.

Thanks for that. Even though I have some other rarities I like this one perhaps best. I like to think the Tyrant collection would not be able to...
I received a request to post some half crowns, and possibly some florins, and so here is another. I had unbelievable fortune to acquire this from...
Here is a 1909 Halfcrown with exceptional lustre in hand. For whatever reason the obverse looks very flat and it is not ( I don't know what is...

The OP coin has better strike in and around the veil, and though I agree with toning residual in it, in my eyes (and this is my series) this is...
My sorry pictures, yea, you guys are too smart as it is the silver proof of the 1953 one centesimo and graded proof 66. Can't remember if it got...
