Some coins tell more than just a simple face value. They evoke distant territories, immense landscapes, and eras when each country expressed its identity through its circulating coins. This lot brings together several coins from Canada as well as the Solomon Islands, mainly issued between the 1960s and 1980s. It features the great Canadian symbols that have marked generations: the maple leaf, the beaver, the Bluenose schooner, and the caribou, as well as several coins bearing the effigy of Queen Elizabeth II. The coins from the Solomon Islands add a more exotic touch to this collection dedicated to Commonwealth currencies. Visible composition: Canadian 1 cent, 5 cents, 10 cents, and 25 cents coins. Various vintages from the 1960s to 1980s. Solomon Islands coins. Portraits of Queen Elizabeth II. The coins show patina and signs of wear consistent with their circulation. They are sold exactly as photographed. An ideal set for starting a collection, enriching a world coin lot, or simply keeping some authentic relics of the 20th century.
