Canox Posted October 11, 2010 Report Share Posted October 11, 2010 I found several discrepancies between both catalogues in quantity of Canadian coins minted. In several cases discrepancies are huge (several folds). Which catalogue is more reliable for Canadian coins? And why there are so big differences?

ccg Posted October 12, 2010 Report Share Posted October 12, 2010 Frequently, it comes down to human transcripting errors. What you might want to do is get either a third catalogue (e.g. Haxby), or get some older versions of Charlton or SCWC, and compare the numbers again.

KoRnholio Posted October 12, 2010 Report Share Posted October 12, 2010 I'd be much more likely to use Charlton (A Canadian guide) rather than Krause which covers all countries, when it comes to Canadian coin mintages. Are there any dates in particular you're curious about? I believe I have the 2005 and 2008 Charlton guides, as well as the 2007 Krause (34th edition).

I do not remember what it was, just remember that numbers were not even close Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
