<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Aidan Work, post: 229142, member: 1824&quot;]John,the 1946C 5c. &amp; 10c. coins are extremely difficult to find.I found the 1947C coins impossible to find,until a member here from Portage-La-Prairie,Manitoba sold me a 1947C 1c. for C$5.He threw in 2 pieces of &#039;tyre money&#039; issued by Canadian Tire as well.</p><p><br /></p><p>I was later able to get a 1936 1c.,which is the only Newfoundland coin struck during the short reign of King Edward VIII (even though it depict&#039;s Sir Bertram MacKennal&#039;s crowned King George V portrait).This coin is also interesting,as it was the very first coin to be issued after Newfoundland&#039;s reversion to colonial rule (1934-49).</p><p><br /></p><p>I have placed a bid on an 1846 Rutherford Bros. 1/2d. from Harbour Grace that&#039;s turned up in one of John Mowbray&#039;s monthly postal auctions.It would be cool if my bid of NZ$30 is successful,as I&#039;m missing Newfoundland in my Canadian traders&#039; currency token collection.I have a few from both Lower Canada &amp; Upper Canada,especially the Upper Canadian St. George pieces.The 1857 is the underrated date,but I have a pair of that date.</p><p><br /></p><p>Aidan.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
