      1863 One penny help

      By Brodie Watt · Posted

      I dug up this coin today and did some research. Google said if the 3 has a defect it might be worth something. I think the 3 is it a slight slant and is lower than the other numbers. Comparing it to the other coins online it looks different but i’m not sure if that’s just cause it’s been in the ground for over 160 years. Any thoughts and opinions would be great, Thanks !

      Canadian Coinage

      By Paddy · Posted

      As far as I can see from my old copies of Krause, all the centrally issued coinage in the name of Canada has been decimal. The earliest seem to be around 1858, although the Dominion coinage starts in 1870. There were some halfpenny and penny token issues in some of the provinces during the 19th century and even some in the denomination of "sou" derived from the French.

      Victorian 1844-45 Crowns, Cinquefoil and Stars

      By Coys55 · Posted

      Comparing it to my pair of 1844 crowns I'd say that's the top part of a cinqfoil. The star is larger and goes almost to trhe top of the N and I whereas the cinqfoil is smaller and goes about halfway up the letters.

      Canadian Coinage

      Without googling, I think it was from the beginning of the unified Canadian currency, c.1860s.

      Hello Paddy, quite right, I managed to find this on the web that someone else was looking into, a useful picture of the difference between the Cinquefoil and the Star 👍
