Canadian Coins

The one dollar Canadian coin is called a loonie or loony because the coin has a loon picture on one side. The toonie or toony is worth two lonnies because it is a two dollar coin.

Canada did not strike any cents with that date. Please check the coin again and post a new question including any inscriptions that might help to ID it.

All countries whose currency is denominated in dollars and cents use the same system, with 100 cents = 1 dollar.

It's still worth exactly one cent in Canada.

Unless it's uncirculated, it's a common coin worth only face value.

The value of a 1931 Canadian 1 cent coin depends on its condition. You can expect to fetch between 0.50 and 3 US dollars for such a coin in good condition.

Assuming you're referring to a U.S. cent and not a British penny with that date, check for a mint mark below the date (it may be blank). Also, you'll have to make a guess at the coin's condition. Then check the link below for a range of retail values by condition and mint mark.

This isn't a coin, but a medallion issued by Shell Oil company sometime between 1967 and 1970. It wasn't legal tender. 1873 is the year Mackenzie was PM, not when the medallion was made.

They sell for anywhere from .50cents a couple of dollars depending on the quality and if you can find a collector.

To give you a valuation, we need mint mark and condition. The mint mark is located on the back under "five cents".

It is E or F. Not sure

There were only two types of coins made, a 1 cent and a 50 cent coin. They were never put into circulation. They are very rare and the original strikes are worth a great deal. They were re-struck in various forms.

The 1 cent in the re-strike is worth about $150 up to $35,000 for one of the original strikes. The 50 Cent piece in a re-strike $7,500 to $10,000.

They're pretty common, I would say it's worth just the face value.

The value of a 1979 Canadian 5 dollar bill depends on its grade and the serial number. It could be worth anywhere between 5 and 5,500 US dollars.

Between $1,800 and $16,800. In the future please include the condition of the coin so I can value it more precisely for you.

Such a coin does not exist.

Canada has not used the British sterling currency system since the mid-19th century, and has never issued a Halfpenny or half cent coin since Confederation.

If the coin has no country name on it and has a sailing ship on the reverse, it would be a British Halfpenny.

Alternatively, you may have a privately minted Halfpenny token.

Canada last minted silver 5-cent coins in 1921, but they weren't called "nickels" at that time. Instead they were more like the old US half-dime coins that circulated in the 19th century.

The Canadian 5-cent piece wasn't called a nickel until 1922 when new, larger nickel-based coins replaced the old silver ones.

$ 1050

Between $1.50 and $63. In the future please add a condition of the coin so I can value it more precisely for you.

Small change is generally accepted at at par value in Canada and the US.

The minor differences in actual value are too small to bother with.
