Hey you hosers! I always hear of them (you) Canadians finding our U.S. Coins up there egh, and all I ever find down here are your semi-modern pennies. Well here it is, an old Canadian silver from the Great White North, 1886, in New Jersey. It's about time I got something shiny from Canada besides a Labatt Beer;)

Now take off egh!! ImageUploadedByTreasureNet.com1443372112.861099.jpgImageUploadedByTreasureNet.com1443372156.226902.jpgImageUploadedByTreasureNet.com1443372167.948633.jpg

Excellent recovery Scrappy.
That's a lot better than the super copper pennies.
You ever notice how hard Canadian Pennies hit?
 

Good score on the Canadian silver....glad to see you're up on Canada humor also....lol.

Nice find. I got a 1920 Canadian LC in Maryland. It was not a recent drop. No Canadian silver though
 

NICE ONE THERE SCRAPPY DOOOOOOOOO ......
 

Thats a sweet little coin
Theyre hard enough to find here in Canada, nice find
Thx IH
It's my oldest Canadian coin I've found. Found the large and small copper ones, some 40's silver dimes, but never anything else that was old.

It is better and I do notice the signal. They are a bit thicker than US small cents and the extra mass probably helps
 

Nice little find man! 1886 - Small 6. In that condition probably 30-50 dollars. (CDN)

Hey man that's cool! Good to hear it's worth a few $$ Thanks for the info. I've pulled a lot of American silver (seated libs) from that decade but pulling a Canadian silver is a special thing!

I see you had a "Great Day AYE"! Now I can't get that stupid music out my head. Those are 2 nice silvers. :thumbsup:
 

That's an awesome old Canadian silver steve!

Nice going on the fish scale Scrappy, any Vickie silver puts a smile on the mug.

Uh, I believe there will be no charge for that beer eh. You see we found a mouse in a beer bottle that came from you"

Classic movie, so many quotes. Now I gotta watch it again! Lol
 

I will gladly trade you a whole pile of new shiny magnetic beaver butt Canuck nickels for that old worn coin that you can't spend at Wal-mart since it is so dirty. of course you will pay for shipping, EGH. love the Bob & Doug Mckenzie photo. gotta go, time for ice road diggers, or is it truckers?

Thx Chris. I'm a whore at this point with silvers and I'll even take a Canadian silver if it helps me reach my year-end goal! Joking! I think this 5 center is friggin awesome. 25 to go;)
 

Eh, that's a nice coin! Long way from home.
