I am selling my almost complete Canadian Silver Nickel collection save for the 1921 and a couple of others. Most are in pretty nice grades and includes both 1874’s, both 1875’s in G4 grades, the 1884, the 1885 and 5 over 5, the 1900 round 00’s and the other rarer coins ! I have a few graded nickels that I want extra $’s for as well ! I want $750 firm with local pick up only ! Email me at wallslarry1214@gmail.com if interested !

If I can’t sell them as a collection I will probably sell them individually on Ebay in the next week or so !

If you want local pickup, it might help if you stated where you live. Also there is no such thing as a silver nickel.
It is either a silver five cents or a nickel five cents which is 1922 or later.

Well I must be from an older school, (maybe not that older) you wouldn't t call a 1910 silver 5 cent coin a nickel.
The terminology nickel came about to distinguish a silver 5 cent coin from one made of nickel hence the knickname.

Coin guy your technically correct but I’m a bit with LDW, I have a hard time not calling a 5 cent coin a nickel . The 5 cent coin made today is still a nickel to me :D . Hard for me to break old habits.

You are right, only a perfectionist gets technical about that stuff instead of concentrating on the subject coins ! I’m 72, I know what I’m going to call them, I’ve handled them for a long time, lol !
