[QUOTE="proofartoncircs, post: 1076835, member: 25952"]I meant 1895. With only a 2.8 cents difference, perhaps everybody ignored the change. I remember Newfoundland 20 cent pieces circulating in New Brunswick until the end of silver circulation there. They were universally passed and accepted as 25 cent pieces. I was always glad to get a decent one for a quarter. I spent the well worn ones. If the denomination wore off, you could still tell the value from the obverse placement of the colon in the inscription (1912 20 cents versus 1917C and 1919C 25 cents).[/QUOTE]
