Canadian curiosity

4 αναρτήσεις
Hi,

I recently found this item pictured. - RCM Meeting - Toronto - June 24 to 28 - 1974

It is a 3" plastic cube, with each of the 1974 Canadian coins to be minted [Dollar, half dollar, quarter, dime, nickel, penny].

They are all silver in color [except for the penny]. Any idea if these are silver coins? I have never seen the 100 Winnipeg dollar before, along with the 1974 quarter and dime to know if the sides are all silvery through, or the brown/silver layers from the typical copper-nickels milled coins. The penny is showing up as silver because of tricks of the scanner light through the plastic. It is a normal 1974 UNC penny. Copper and all.

Any ideas on this, or further history if anyone has any, would be fantastic.

Any thoughts on the value of something like this?

It's not a 100 dollar coin but rather a commemorative dollar coin:

Canadian coins should not have the same edge as their American clad counterparts. I doubt any coins inside this cube could be made of silver.
I meant "100" 1-dollar coin* :D

Ok, fair enough. Darn, was hoping I found some freebie silver
It's still a good find because all the coins are Unc.  :)
