Just asking! My first box of dimes ever I pulled a '68 canadian and for the life of me couldn't tell. So I went to the magnet. Haha. Either way, nice score I love old foreign silver.

I love old foreign silver as well, I actually collect foreign coins. I can tell *Usually* if a coin contains silver. Silver has a more dull look to it usually, it's difficult to explain.

I guess I could say that silver looks more whiteish, especially on those silver 1968 dimes compared to the non-silver. :)

I know exactly what you mean. Silver looks like silver, but it doesn't have a shiny luster like non-silver. Haha.
 

Nice! Could I trouble you for a pic of the other side of the 1940 CAN, never found one myself.
 

That 1940 George VI is nice. Ive only so far found a 1949 and a 1945 50 cents George VI
 

Got to Love the Ender. Nice Finds.
