Thanks...I definitely came out ahead--it's also known as the C1 or "round chin" variety.

C-4's what's ya got to worry about........nasty stuff.

 

Some large Canadian coppers to follow on the morrow.....picked 'em up at FUN 'cause the danged classic (US) commems was too danged expensive. I think I've found a new series to collect.......

 

Well that's not the fact I am around 8am to about midnight. It maybe I may not have anything to say. Some post are not worth taking about.

 

One my buddies we went half on 1 bag of Canadian nickel. We both get 16 rolls. They were found in a home and the person who collected them passed in 1974 no tell what we will find. Maybe a bu roll of this?

 

The good ol' Sudbury INCO nickel ... winna-winna-chicken-dinna!!

 

Grabbed some out of storage. Nothing earth shattering, just a few odds and ends. Didn't feel like removing from 2X2s. Lazy this morning. Been on vacation and have to go back tomorrow, Blah!

 

I have a trade in the works for this
1858 penny's
What would you offer for this one???

 

Recently (coupla months) acquired 1965 type 4 cent (pointed 5, small beads). Here are details showing the... well, the details:

 

Whaat, youse guys snowed in up there?

 

Shiny, sharp 1906 large cent...

 

Meh-looking 1814 Wellington token (Charlton #208)

 

Well, time to move to the new thread, although, I did consider creating a 'Post your Newfoundland coins here' thread...

Here is a new acquisition of mine. A very, very tough coin to find above EF grade, probably because only 40,000 were minted. This one is PCGS AU-50.

 

Another Newfoundland acquisition, in a nicer grade, PCGS MS-64RB.

 

Last one, this one is from the Remick Collection, and the key date/variety to the series. Again, a very tough coin to get in nicer grades. This one was purchased raw from the 2007 Spink Auction and subsequently submitted to PCGS by its previous owner. It grades PCGS XF-40. I decided since that Jerome Remick was a writer both as a geologist and numismatist (as I am), that I would prefer to have his piece over a PCGS XF-45 example that was offered to me at the same time as this one. Probably the only time I chose a pedigree over grade for my PCGS Registry set.

 

Raymond - the lighting is tricking my eyes... at first glance, that 1929 5c looks like a specimen strike... that is until I study the crown and see the weak strike and wear points of a nice, weakly struck, EF-AU coin.
