[QUOTE="Dollar1948, post: 878704, member: 17239"]You better believe the George V's and earlier are pricey. I was told the reason being is because 50 cents back in those days was quite a bit of money for some, so people really couldn't afford to throw their coins in an old coffee can and forget about them. I mean, you can get a MS grade 1935-1939 silver dollar cheaper than its 50 cent counter part. I collect them as well, amongst other Canadians and pretty well target the same grades you got. I especially like the coat of arms on the reverse of the Eddies and newer.[/QUOTE]
