Re: George VI with a large lamination
la Cenne, Follow the link Henry posted. For more info see... Looks like a legitimately flawed planchet to me. Just that a lot of the metal has peeled and been lost in circulation. Additionally, FWIW, it appears the incuse towards the outside of the reverse die was extremely eroded, especially at the...

Re: PEI tokens or Medals 4 coin set Questions
ummm...
found it in like 5 seconds. There are privy marks on either end of the island. That'll probably get you somewhere.

Re: PEI tokens or Medals 4 coin set Questions
I'm guessing these don't have a denominated value that you'd find on trade dollars. Sounds like they're a presentation set of medallions that may have been, more often than not, awarded individually. All the same design?.. nothing to differentiate the quartet other than different metals Freddy? Mayb...

Re: New member.
Very nice collecton Franklin and Henry. Welcome and thanks for posting all the photos! I noticed a labelling mistake in your book that you might have picked up on already... The Cindy Klassen and Sledge Hockey 25c are 2009 and the Klassen was also released as a colourized coin. Better put that one o...

Re: canadian 1950 one cent die clash
Yesiree, the second is the underside of Bertie's chin. You're not showing the date but I'm curious. Look for a clash running from the leaf to (through) the 5. As they say in far away galaxies... the force is strong with this one.

Re: 1963 nickel
Attached AD is pretty common I think. It's a contained error and I suppose it wasn't a major concern in the scheme of things.

Re: 2012 $2 edge lettering
Forgot about those. I'll have a look, but I may have foolishly spent them. I was getting quite a few for a while there. New security twoonies with dimples around the rim from the edge lettering being struck too low or too high...
Anyone? I can't be the only one who was getting them.

Re: What dates 1963-2011 Die variety too.Hunt!
There's no key dates in those years Jello. The 1965 Small Beads-Pointed 5 variety is your only salvation (thanks for playing)... but then again, a 1965 Large Beads-Pointed 5 would be the Holy Grail. Otherwise, besides BU's obviously, I'd be looking for double dates. Double 1969 seems pretty scarce. ...

Re: 1913 5 cent die crack
Thanks guys. I'll keep looking. I've had that coin for almost 25 years and can't remember if I ever knew that crack existed or not.. ...keeping a better record now though. Somewhat more recently acquired... got a 1893 obverse flawed planchet 5 cent last week. I'll post it when I get a chance. Cheers

Re: 2012 Loonie extra metal? Any thoughts?
That's a lot of extra metal. Almost like a weak spot in the die caused a hunk of it to break out (fall out).
New to me too.

Re: 1952-2002 colourized loonie
Glad to be of help. Let us know what you can find out.
But honestly, to tell you the truth....
methinks the loonatics have taken over the asylum.

Re: Hello
Hi Jello, It was just a hunch. Bidness wimmin and all... Rose Knox, née Markward, aka Mrs Charles B. Knox (November 18, 1857 – 1950) was an American businesswoman, who ran the Knox Gelatin Factory in Johnstown, New York, USA after her husband died. She won wide respect as one of the leading business...
