The buffalo is definitely circulated (obviously) , but I am wondering if it may also be a proof, since the engraving on the coin seems to ‘stand out’ somewhat. At least to my untrained European eye. Some white spots on the coins are lint/cotton fibres. I took pics from two angles of the 50c coin.</p><p>Also – are they worth anything?</p><p>[ATTACH=full]947539[/ATTACH]</p><p>[ATTACH=full]947541[/ATTACH] </p><p>[ATTACH=full]947546[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>Finally the buffalo:</p><p>[ATTACH=full]947548[/ATTACH] </p><p>I went into a numismatic store in Germany a couple of days ago, intent on buying some old silver coins (which I did). I asked about a box of unsorted modern coins that was lying on the table, the guy in the store said I can have three for free given I already purchased other coins. These three were in the box and I picked them out – the Canadian ones are either wholly uncirculated or proof coins, but can’t tell since I am a noob in that field.</p><p><br /></p><p>Thank you,</p><p><br /></p><p>Alex[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
