Canadian nickels (1922 and later) never contained silver. A 1967 Centennial nickel is made of 99.9% nickel and is worth about 15 cents in above-average condition.
Any Canadian dime dated 1967 or earlier is silver. Then some in 1968 were 50% silver, others were pure nickel. The nickel ones are magnetic.
If it's been in circulation, maybe face value to 10 cents.
Canadian nickels (1922-present) never contained silver. Centennial nickels were made of 99.9% pure nickel metal.
its worth bout a 1.50
That's a Canadian centennial nickel from 1967. It's currently worth about 7 cents for the metal content.
The 1968 dollar is 100% nickel. 1967 was the last year that the canada used silver for their coins.
After 1967, Canadian dollar coins no longer contained silver. 1968-86, they're made of pure nickel, and are still worth one dollar each in Canada.
No 1968 was the last year for the Canadian silver quarter.No that's wrong. I possess the same quarter. You can get 1.50 for it.
1967 is a common date for Canadian silver dollars, as well as the last year they were actually made of silver. It's currently worth about $18.
There is no silver in the Canadian half dollar dated after 1967. If you have older coins (lucky you), the content is as follows: 1870 - 1919 92.5% silver 7.5% copper 1920 - 1967 80% silver 20% copper
Unfortunately neither dates are silver. After 1967 the Canadian dollars were made of Nickel. They are worth around 1 - 4 dollars in any condition below MS65
Please don't assume that every older coin must be made of silver. Until they were recently changed to plated steel, Canadian nickels were minted in 99.9% nickel metal. If you think about it for a few seconds, like their American counterparts Canadian nickels are larger than dimes. If the coin had been made of silver it would have had a face value of 5 cents but be worth more than 10 cents (!?)
