Description: 1912 Canada 5-cent “fish scale” silver coin - free shipping! This tiny coin (about the size of your fingernail) is made of .925 fine silver (sterling), and weighs just 1.16 grams. That means that it contains about a dollar or so worth of silver. They were nicknamed “fish scales” due to their small size, thinness and silver color. Being so tiny, one would imagine that many of them were lost over time simply because it is hard to hold onto them. This example is pretty worn, and has two tiny scratches on the reverse. The recent price realizations I have found for comparable coins on eBay have clustered in the area of $5.00 to $8.50. I will sell you this one for just $3.95 and I will pay the postage to get it to your mailbox secured in an eBay Standard envelope, tracked and insured, so that you have an opportunity to fill that 1912 space in your collection at a good price!
