1967 Canadian Centennial Nickel!


Bought this extremely attractive coin at the flea market. I can say without a doubt that this coin is uncirculated. Too bad it's common. If you didn't already know Canada became its own country in 1867 and issued special coins in 1967 to celebrate. They changed the design on the reverses to have a new design like the bicentennial American coins. Unlike 1976 American coins the dual date was on the reverse. These nickels usually featured a beaver on a log but the design was changed to have a rabbit. It is worth $0.20.
