Check the 1 shop on Ebay for a 1884 5 centsCanadian for auction. I don't "do Canadian", but one of you might

That's what I thought, when I saw it!. It could be a nice find. Seller says light scratches on obverse. but if it goes f-12, or even vf-20, it could be a good buy. Depends on what the final bid is.

Where would one go to find values for canadian coins. I ended up with quite a few in with some US coins I bought a while back but don't really know what they are worth. Like this one. It says 5 CENTS 1874. Got no idea how to put a value on it.

in my 2000 book...
There's 2 types of 1874 5 cents:
plain 4: vg8/$12 F12/$27
crosslet 4: vg8/$10 F12/$20
In 1875 there's just 2 types and both are rarer:
lg date vg8/$125 F12$175
sm date vg8/$80 F12/$150
Hopefully you got an 1875 too

Steven, from the photo, I would go g-8, anthe values in March 2007 Coin VAlues, it is $22, with the plain "4", and $14. with the "crosslet "4". This issue has the CAnadian, Mexican, and Us coins. Be my guest.

Canadian standards are much stricter than US standards. The 1874 5 cent coin above would grade no higher than G4 on a good day.

Thanks, SMED, I'll keep that in mind! It was only a guess, on my part. I don't grade. My peepers "ain't what they used to be", just like the "old grey mare".

BTW, SMED, that coin went for $101.00. Maybe I should sell some of my junk!
