<p>[QUOTE=&quot;giorgio11, post: 1652051, member: 17094&quot;]The Royal Canadian Mint is selling some of their cache of $5 and $10 coins, last I looked there were some still apparently available. Some dealers have sent theirs off to PCGS and come back in the 62-63 grade mostly, although those are probably the nicer pieces that were sent in. I think this may temporarily depress the market but the ones in MS63 are awfully nice having been unmessed-with for the last 100 years. </p><p><br /></p><p>As far as a nice Canadian coin, you might try for one of the key date silver dollars 1945-48. Or the first-year George V silver dollar of 1935, technically a one-year type. A nice MS66 can be had for a few hundred dollars. There is a nice one on eBay but the guy just wants too darn much for it, been there for months. Another idea is some of the low-mintage Newfie silver half dimes or dimes. Or a nice Victorian half, those are tough and I have a particularly nice 1870 No LCW in AU55. As with anything else it pays to do a bit of homework first and decide what you like. The 1859 large cent varieties are really popular among collectors as well. </p><p><br /></p><p>Best Regards, :hail:</p><p><br /></p><p>George[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
