[@silverwishes6000]

Cool I have 4 1953 just put them in flips

[@zanescogin4469]

I have a 1959 Canadian nickel in almost perfect condition. Do you know anything about it?

[@jamesmarler3939]

Canada coins are one of my favorite coins ,cool video 👍

[@jaybraddock4709]

James Marler I have two Canadian penny's but I don't know nothing about them could you tell me anything I need to look for please

[@jamesmarler3939]

Jay Braddock I’m pretty new at coin collecting but I just go to the bank and get coin rolls and look though them and you will find them, sorry don’t know what to tell you just look up Canadian coins and there’s a lot of people that know a lot more than me that’s how I’m learning hope this helps.

[@jaybraddock4709]

James Marler ok I will give it try. I just now got into trying to find different type error marks on coins. Recently. Used to the only way I would keep it is if it was 1964 down but I have a video of a 1967 quarter. If you don't mind checking it out. KZbin search Jay Braddock's 1967 quarter and look at the presidents face. It don't look like someone done it. I've never seen anything like it

[@chrisdugger2877]

I got a hold book 400 coins

[@anthonyscinocca4380]

Would be nice to see the coin you’re describing.

[@johndipietrantonio3701]

I watched your video and looked through some coins and the only canadian nickel I had was a 1953 with the close maple leaf and the short shoulder and I'm wondering if you look a picture of it.

[@cuzinevil1]

The traditional reverse for the Canadian nickel is the beaver in the 2017 version it's also a beaver but a different design.

[@Luke-hq5zd]

[@bonnie_gail]

What are you saying 1965 when the coin says 1968

[@rondougherty5481]

i do poor roll hunting buying loose rolls from my bank, today i pick up a1952 George the vi , also a 2009-d nickel, 1991 nickel, and the best i did today was 1972 that look like it came out a proof set, it has a beautiful cameo 99% flawless , also a little while back a 1990 full bare beaver and a very good shape 1970 low mintage nickel.

[@qawwertyyugggyiuiuuhinkopo748]

[@floradiazflora2897]

[@karinaderby5807]

Is a 1949 Canadian nickle in the shape of an octagon with king george on it worth anything

[@mdfarukmdfaruk118]

Wowhinice

[@markdemell8056]

I got a nice and shiny 1978 beaver ,,,it looks pretty close to proof! I smashed it out of a glass encasement which was attached to a bottle opener.Some king of novelty item .But the coin is real!It also has some errors .

[@CanadianKingCoins]

It would be very impossible to find a pre-1922 5¢ coin in circulation, as when they were silver they were also very tiny, much smaller than even a dime. Nowhere near the size a modern Nickel

[@menotyou7762]

not true. I find silver nickels, dimes and quarters all the time. Mostly quarters and dimes but they are out there

[@CanadianKingCoins]

@@menotyou7762 The pre-1922 5¢ are not even close to the size of nickels, or any modern coin, so yes it would be impossible for them to be in circulation

[@dennisjamieson3328]

The 1953 shoulder fold far leaf is worth a few thousand also. Canadian nickel.

[@MegMakesCrafts]

That’s the only Canada 150 coin I don’t have! 😫

[@BL-rb7jm]

I just found a copper Canadian 5 Cent 1973 is sat rare or is that normal because I don't think they made it copper 1973? And I wonder who I could send it to you to get it evaluated. maybe it was a error coin

[@smokeyspock]

Ok cool i didnt know about the low mintage 1867-2017 i have a few rolls of thoses guys once in a while not at the moment but i use to go thoigh a $100 box of nickel and keep 150th of Canada and the 1960s era or older or the v nickels has well and yeah i will have a better look at my nickels one of theses days thanks for the info

[@carollshelby500]
