Nice coins!

 

1902-H Large H Silver Half Dime MS66 PCGS

 

1903 H 5 cents, raw and a bit more worn...looks to have been roughly cleaned too.

 

Just bought this 1954 for my Canadian 50 cents for the toned collection 1937-1968. Beautiful toning...

 

Good year

 

Not old, old but received these mid April

 

I posted these on a different thread, but in case anyone who would care missed them: I always like to pick up Canada large cents whenever they make it into the 10 cent bin. I think not to many US collectors in my area are into Canadian stuff, so a surprising amount of material winds up in the junk bin.
Here's what 50 cents US will get you on a lucky day.

 

Always check for if the T in Victoria has both feet serifs. There are 3 scarce varieties that are ID'd by that and have a nice value increase. There are also 2 varieties that have the T in Cent repunched. Each of those is worth about 5X a normal ones

 

I love the large cents and have a nearly complete collection of them. Great bargain most times, and really good looking coins.

 

Here is a VF 35 Newfoundland half dollar. Am working on a Newfoundland type set. So many Vicky silvers have such nice aging.

 

Sorry, my first time posting a photo...

 

I'm really fond of them, too. Have a couple of the 1859 varieties. Have to use a 10X to really see them but they show up nicely even if it's a smooth VF 10 coin. The 2011 Charlton give a good overview of all the Vicky varieties. I was able to get one for about $10. online.

One can still find some RD pennies in the 1911-20 series with King George V, at a reasonable price.

 

Oddly enough, today I received a Canada cent dated 1964 from a California Safeway store.

 

I took a screen shot and changed it to .jpg format.

 

Do you have a photo of the other side of this coin ?

 

I really like Canadian coins. My collection Link: https://collectivecoin.com/spirityoda

 

Here is the back. The coin is a nice even silver; I'll have to figure out how to get the right color when I do this.

 

Very nicely organized and I can't imagine how many coins you had to look at to find all of these. Silver toning (without nor with colors) has an appeal of its own, and the level of toning is consistent throughout the entire collection.

There was a handful of coins that caught my eye. The Canadian dollar with the flying goose has nice edge toning which frames the coin in the same manner as a carefully-matched picture frame. There was an 1832 coin--with a crown, I couldn't figure out the country--that has some nice original red. The 'Baden" copper--it appears to be high relief--is this a medal or coin? 1850 Gulden a highly detailed coin in very good shape. And, of course--the 1939 Buffalo nickel. I think it's a gem and that year is one that will live in history.
