What A Cool Pussy

Good morning folks, thanks for joining me today

Today's coin is a 25 Cents Canadian coin from 1967.

So this coin was a bit of a bugger for me. They either come in 80% silver with 20% copper OR they come in 50% silver and 50% copper.

I don't own a Sigma machine but I do own a coin slide and a pinger. Still not used to the pinger so I went all out with the slide.
I came to the decision that it's 50% silver due to the speed was a bit quicker than one of my 80% silver coins. Though the size difference of them both was huge so it is currently up in the air if it is 50% silver or not.
I couldn't even check the diameter as they are both the same annoyingly. This would have reinforced my decision on silver content.
Either way I am really happy with this coin as I might have a more valuable one than I originally thought. Time will tell with this once I get better at testing.

I picked this coin up as part of a set of 5 other Canadian coins commemorating the 100th anniversary of Canada.

Minted by the Royal Canadian Mint of Ottawa which is still producing quality coins to this date.

This 1967 25 Cents 80% Silver coin is 5.87 grams.
While the 50% silver coin is about 5.67 grams.
You just need a little scale to determine one from the other.

I'm waiting on a new scale as my last one wasn't very good 🤣
