Hi everyone.
As my ID ..... Nickels
I've been collection Canadian Nickels for 35 years.
Have all but three.

I will be more than happy to help and member.
Cheers!!

Welcome aboard, I collect only the old 12 sided ones, I actually got a 1959 and a 1962 in change the other day.

Hi Nickels and welcome to CP. Do you only collect the nickel nickels or 5 cent pieces as well?

Welcome Nickels to CP hope you have a good time here.

Nice to see you over here, Nickels.

Can we call you Nick for short?

Do you collect Fishscales too?

Welcome.

Thank you all for the welcome.

Yes, I do collect Fishscales too.
Those are the are the three I'm missing from my collection.
1875, 1884 and 1921

I have three collections going.
The most recent one is all ICCS graded coins. Very good deals on ebay.

Thanks again.

I have lots of fishscales, or what circulated as fishscales in Canada, rather 3d coins which circulated as 5¢. Not very many but a couple Canadian ones though. Most of my Canadian coins are circulation finds, and not stuff I purchase.

Welcome!

BTW everyone - I have yet to see any reference to "fishscale" outside of Charlton and suspect that it is at best a regionally used term, and most likely a nickname used by some.

However, I have come across references to the 5c (1910s Vancouver history) as a "jitney".

History is but interpretation... and when one interprets wrongly (especially a non-historian), "history" is changed, sometimes irrevocably.
