I like the reverse of that coin.
 
It's the shield of Canada....we were fortunate to have silver coins until 1966 versus 1964 for the US....we did have some 50% silver in 1967 + 1968 which had both silver and clad versions.

It is a beautiful coin. I love everything about Canada. It has been my favorite place to visit..... Except Hawaii which is hard to top. God bless great dig, Al.
 
Brother Al,

Thanks for the compliments.....Canada does have a few things going for it but I could do without our cold winters....lol...

Nice chunk of silver
 
Large silver is always a great find! Congrats! That one has good detail too!
You must have been really happy!
 
MSbeepbeep,

Yeah funny thing is I started detecting in 1993 and this is the first half dollar I've found.....go figure.

Canadian silver halves are great! And a great find I might add :)

I collect the silver halves & dollars. They sure are purty :)
