    Well snaz, you have rekindled my love of canadian coins. They kind of went to the wayside while I pursued the U.S. stuff, and went through a big silver phase. I forgot I even had a bunch of Canadian half dollars. I also am trying to photo every coin I have. So, no time like the present!
    For those who haven't seen the half dollars, here are the three types from 1911+. Some beautiful designs!

    1911-36 (George V)

    1937-52 (George VI)

    1953-date (Elizabeth II)

    wow, so those are very difficult to classify. They all look so similar. I think I'd say OB6 (obverse Die, Die used on 1.33% of 1858 cents) and RC8 (reverse Die, Die used on 2% of 1858 cents) . I think I'm fairly confident on the Reverse Die, but the Obverse I want to say OB1, but apparently, according to the literature I have on hand that isn't possible. And the closest Obverse Die I can find is OB6 out of the possible Obverse Dies.

    I have too many to photo, but here are some old ones. I have about a roll of silver dimes and quarters plus some halves and dollars and scores of nickels and pennies. Here are two large pennies, and a silver 5cent.
