Composition: .925 Silver/.0346 oz. Mintage: 2,000,000. Comments: Purchased from member "forvm" on eBay. This was intended to serve as an attractive "filler" until I stepped up to a full UNC, but I never did.  It had some pretty toning- which might've been heat-induced, but I didn't care. 07- CANADA: 10 CENTS, KM3.<img src="http://i88.photobucket.com/albums/k173/lordmarcovan/Victorian%20Type%20Set/VHC07-coin.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /><a href="http://i88.photobucket.com/albums/k173/lordmarcovan/Victorian%20Type%20Set/VHC07-slab.jpg" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://i88.photobucket.com/albums/k173/lordmarcovan/Victorian%20Type%20Set/VHC07-slab.jpg" rel="nofollow">(ICG MS62)</a>Size: 21.5 mm. Composition: .925 Silver/.0691 oz. Mintage: 1,200,000.Comments: Purchased at a show on my behalf by my friend Don Rupp ("ajaan" from Collectors Universe), who let me swap him some other coins for it, 11/2009.  This is quite a tough little coin in Mint State and this example was truly gorgeous for the grade.  I wasn't sure it would cross to PCGS or NGC, though (might have been lightly dipped), so I left it in the ICG holder. 08- CANADA: 25 CENTS, KM5.<img src="http://i88.photobucket.com/albums/k173/lordmarcovan/Victorian%20Type%20Set/VHC08-coin.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /><a href="http://i88.photobucket.com/albums/k173/lordmarcovan/Victorian%20Type%20Set/VHC08-slab.jpg" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://i88.photobucket.com/albums/k173/lordmarcovan/Victorian%20Type%20Set/VHC08-slab.jpg" rel="nofollow">(NGC VF30; ex-ICCS VF20)</a>Size: 28 mm.
