1920 Canadian George V Small Cent found in brick

[VAB2013]

Was surprised to find this in the brick last night. My apology for the bits and pieces photos, I can't take a full coin shot.

Nice... I am away on Vacation so I can't check my Canadian books... but the 20's are harder to find... I think the key is 1922... but a 1920 is still a nice find

Not Bad... looks like $1.20 in VG $2.70 in VF.....
2 die cracks listed... see here

Thanks onecent! I was about half through opening up rolls and doing the initial search and sort when I found this. It caused me to brew a pot of coffee and finish going through the rest of the brick LOL!! I was pulling out DDO's, wheats and likely suspects left and right. Good thing I work from home Have fun on your vacation!!

Nice get away on my part...North Georgia Mountain Retreat.....Me, My Wife, her Books, little metal detecting...and a zip lock bag of 1980's cents.

Awesome find! I love finding foreign stuff in rolls. I especially love finding old foreign stuff. My oldest foreign coin just happens to be a Canadian coin as well but unfortunately not as old as yours, only 1936

Hey onecent, thank you very much for that link. We may have a die crack between ET and IND, what I am seeing does not go all the way to the rim though. My pic may not help much for making a determination, but this is what I am seeing.

You mean I found something that furry does not have yet? No way!! Thanks Furry! It doesn't matter what it's worth really, it's the excitement of finding something! But I'm sure it just gets more exciting when dollar signs accompany the find!

Oh, I've got one...I just didn't find it in circulation ;)

[VAB2013]

Oh furry... I did think of you last night... I must have had a moment of "furry fever" because my thought was... "hummmm.... wonder if I can squeeze one more brick into my week" LOL... that's it.... furry fever!!

[furryfrog02]

Hahaha that sounds about right! I totally did that last night too...I think I have a problem...
I need to go to CRHA...My name is Furry and it has been 3 days since I've searched a brick. :P

That figures LOL!!! You probably have as many good finds (and purchases) as coop has photos!

[furryfrog02]

I wish...

yep... around 1 am I found the 1920... then a bunch of DDO's and wheats popped out and I was still unwrapping and searching when the clock went off at 5:30 am. I have a huge pile to go through again I think we do have a problem! And I doubt that it has been "3 days" LOL

[furryfrog02]

You're right, it's only been 12hrs. I was only up until 1130 finishing off a box...
