    For those who don't frequent the exonumia thread, I found this today. First encased large cent I've seen

    Nice exonumia. That cent looks so good I'd almost want to take it out. Personally I don't like the 50 cent reverse. It's too cramped but the design is nice.

    just now bought this toned 1947 Canada 50 Cents Straight 7 for $30.00 I am trying to figure out if this is the 1947 Straight 7 Narrow date (S7 ND) or the 1947 Maple Leaf, Straight 7/7/7 (ML S7) ??? sellers pics...

    that blob to the bottom right of the 7 looks like a smashed maple leaf ? I will take a closer look when I get the coin in my hands.

    same seller off Ebay toned 1939 50 cents, XF-AU, paid $80.00 I am ok with that because of the toning. mintage-287,976 sellers pics...

    I love the color toning. it will make a great addition to my toned Canadian 50 cents collection.

    Not technically a coin but should be sufficiently Canadian

    took a chance on this coin being natural toning for $30.00 Canada 1965 50 cents, I am digging the full rainbow of colors. this seller has a 100% feedback rating. seller also said this coin has not been cleaned or altered. sellers pics...

    Thanks :).

    I'm trying to gradually buy the entire series or at least as many of them as I can afford. Have 4 years to date :)

    Having cleaned and sold several Canadian coins myself, I always tell the buyer that it's been cleaned. The one that you bought doesn't look
    toned. It looks improperly cleaned.

    so artificially toned then ? or cleaned and re-toned naturally ? confused here.

    "Artificially Toned," no. Improperly cleaned.
