I believe there are a few Canadian collectors here; they may just not be online right now. I collect all kinds of Canadian coins and paper money, scrip, tokens, etc. I also collect US, British and other world coins. I haven't been collecting very much as of lately, but still have all the coins I've bought.

I can't forget to list the Canadian shinplaster collection I have. For those who aren't familiar with it, it is scrip (a type of paper money) like they used in the U.S. during the Civil War.

I collect coins and money from my travels. Romanian plastic money was my favorite before they joined the EU. It's so purty.

They were a 25 cent denomination. Shinplaster was/is a slang term for these Bills, supposingly they used to stuff them in their pants to protect their shins against bullets.

Thanks for the info, Shimmy. I have some of all three years, but haven't looked at them in years. Don't want to even think about selling them though.

I collect Canadian, only because I found a couple jars of coins and spent a couple hrs going through them. I completed the cents and am waiting to find a cool album to put my circulated nickels and dimes into, alot of the early issues are nice looking and are very nice, this weekend I am going to Barnes&Noble to p.u. my books that I ordered and may very well order some kind of historical or variation book. Only because I have not been to a coinshow in the past 3-4 months will I have to resort to this as my coin addiction is not satisfied. So if you have some post-em cuz I just love looking at the round orbs I really don't care about how good the pics come out. They cannot be any worse than Mr. Colin post. Hey! any book suggestions?

I like the Guardmaster albums for putting my Canadian coins in. They sell them at many dealers, but here is one, Brooklyn Galleries: [url=http://http://www.brooklyngallery.com/cgi-bin/commerce.exe?search=action&category=0063&keywords=all]http://http://www.brooklyngallery.com/cgi-bin/commerce.exe?search=action&category=0063&keywords=all[/url]

Shimmy, I went on a major archeological excavation for you tonight. Found my shinplasters and a bunch of Canadian Tire munny...lol. I even found a banknote from the 1800's from my home town which I'll post on the U.S. forum. I'll post the shinplasters as soon as I have a chance to scan them. Last edited on 07:03 am by Luvdawgs |
