Not much of a "wow" factor with today's $40 -

1940-D
1952-D
1957-D
1959-D

Canadian: 1984

Looks like it was a Denver sweep! Can't wait to get back to the half dollar slots tomorrow.

Well at least you found some older nickels and didn't get a complete skunk.

Immy do have a Canadian 2001 dime and on the back it reads, "Year of Volunteers Annee Des Benevoles"? I found one today and I haven't seen it before.

Neat find! I've never heard of it. Canadian quarters have a lot of commems but not dimes. Here's an article I found:

Thanks for posting the link to that article, it's very interesting. I had no idea what the coin commemorated.

Nice Immy. Good luck on the halves & let us know how it turns out.

You have inspired me to get a Jefferson nickel collection book and try my luck with it.

Good luck LJ. You'll like it because holes get filled pretty quickly and with some presistance (which you clearly have) it can be completed in a year or so.
