<p>[QUOTE=&quot;wazzappenning, post: 1005377, member: 27347&quot;]1968 was the last year canadian dimes were made of silver. many 68&#039;s were also nickel. there are no copper edges on canadian coins. i think the us did this to make sure both canadian dimes and coins of the same size, and maybe slugs could not be used in vending machines, or easily be spotted in rolls? (although i thought canadian dollar was worth more than us then? it was in the 70&#039;s anyway) good eye though. my guess is that someone else found it in change and purposely dropped it, thinking canadian money is just junk, which is the mentality i usually see when in us and trying to pass of some canadian coins at the store. they look at me like im handing them a handfull of marbles or pocket lint. but we take american coins at par (which used to be good but you had to save a lot of them to make it worthwhile.</p><p><br /></p><p>ok so anyway the answers are, yes it is a silver coin. no i dont know how much its worth (but at least the silver), no its not a special year. </p><p>i would look for errors, and since the first one you will see is a full die rotation, all canadian coins are like that. hope i helped and didnt go on too long.(my specialty)[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
