Canada, Nova Scotia, Victoria One Cent

One of the most North Eastern Provinces of Canada is Prince Edward Island. They only made a coin once for this area and that was in 1871. You have the crowned portrait of Queen Victoria on one side and a pine tree on the other. This was a large One Cent coin and it was the only coin ever struck for Prince Edward Island and it was minted for just one year, 1871. The coins are in Fine or better condition and if you are trying to put together one coin from each country, you will definitely need this one. Our agent has been going to Canada twice a year for two years to put this group together. After all there are a lot of people who want a coin from Prince Edward Island and not a lot of coins to go around. A very important type coin and the only coin of the country.

Before Canada became a Confederation, some parts issued their own currency and New Brunswick was one of those. This is a copper Large Cent with the portrait of Queen Victoria on one side and a crown within a wreath with the denomination and date on the other side. This coin was only issued for two years 1861 and 1864, so it is an important type coin and difficult to find. All coins are in Very Good-Fine condition and represent a different country for your collection. These coins are now some 150 years old and only struck for two years.

Before Newfoundland officially it became part of the Canadian Federation they used to issue their own coinage. For country collectors, you will need a coin of Newfoundland. They issued coins from the time of Queen Victoria right up to King George VI. Here we are offering some of the last silver coins issued by Newfoundland, under King George VI, Queen Elizabeth II’s Father. You get the silver Five Cents and with the portrait of King George VI and both some of the last coins issued for Newfoundland as an independent entity. Coins will be in Fine-Very Fine condition and nice examples.
