Canadian Coin Club, about this club

I created this club in april 1997 because I liked to collect Canadian coins. In my region Canadian coins collectors are quite rare and the opportunities to conduct trade with other coin collectors does not happen very often. With the arrival of the internet I began to list my extras Canadian coins and it resulted in a lot of transactions. After that I told myself that I am not the only one in the world who is in the same situation.

So i decided to create the Canadian Coin Club to permit other people who have the internet to list their spare Canadian coins. In december 1998 the Canadian Coin Club counted around 70 members who listed their extra Canadian coins, colonial tokens and banknotes for trade with anyone who is interested.

In January 1999, the Canadian Coin Club has grown up. In addition we still can find members coins list, a brief history of the Canadian coinage system (since around 1700) including provinces of New-Brunswick, Nova-Scotia and Newfoundland before they joined Canadian confederation. You'll also find in this club a few adds of people around the world who are searching for a certain Canadian coins.

You'll find letters, text with answers from people who have suggestions or comments about coins collecting, and some experiences from other coins collectors. In the link pages you'll find links of web sites that are coins collecting related. I also thought to add a page on how I grade and evaluate coins with some photos.

Relax and enjoy. Add the main page to your bookmarks or preferences, if you are Canadian coin collector or have old Canadian coins this site may be useful and it's totally

FREE.
