I think it says "Baci" not Bali.

If the nickel has a "P" mint mark above the dome on Monticello, then it is a "war nickel", meaning that it's 35% silver.

Had a look now and there is an "S"
Not as rare?

My mistake. All with mint marks above the dome are 35% silver. Your '43 S is actually less common than the '43 P, but not really worth any more because of it.

That just squares us up, because I find quite a bit of Canadian coinage here in Michigan even though I'm 2hrs from Windsor and Sarnia.

Longhair... You find any old Canuck coins or mostly current stuff? What was the oldest Canadian coin you find ? Or anyone else from the US find ?

Mostly I find KG pennies like this one.

Then there is an occasional fish scale like this one (1900 5¢).


And I've found two of these 1844 Bank of Montreal Half Penny bank tokens in the last couple years.
