Two iconic comic book covers appear on these coins. Superman’s first appearance from
1938, and a classic one from 1972.
Superman clears the shelves
faster than a speeding bullet
By Bret Evans
T he Royal Canadian Mint’s
(RCM) new Superman
coins turned into super sellers,
with the four coins selling out
in just days.
The coins were unveiled on
Aug. 29, at Fan Expo Canada in
Publications Registration Mail No. 09137
Agreement No. 40069699
news
Toronto by Peter Van Loan,
leader of the government in the
House of Commons, and Pat-
rick Hadsipantelis, vice-presi-
dent of marketing and commu-
nications at the Royal Canadian
Mint.
The coins went on sale on
Sept. 2 at RCM boutiques in Ot-
tawa, Winnipeg and Vancouver,
as well as distributors and par-
ticipating Canada Post outlets.
By Sept. 8, the RCM’s inven-
tory was gone, with all four
coins listed as sold out at the
Mint’s website. However some
retailers may still have inven-
tory.
On Sept. 9, various online re-
tailers were offering the coins,
most at 30 to 50 per cent over
the issue price.
The 2013 coins, issued to
mark the 75th anniversary of
Superman, sold out in a day.
As with last year’s issue, the
coins drew on existing images
used to portray Superman in
the past. In this case four differ-
ent comic book covers.
“Canadians from coast to
coast to coast recall Superman’s

adventures in the comic books
of their youth and still follow
his adventures today,” said Van
Loan. “Our government is
proud that the Royal Canadian
Mint has created this coin series
to preserve his legacy and to
promote the values that the
Man of Steel embodies.”
“Superman’s legend contin-
ues with these expertly crafted
coins produced in stunning
colour by Mint employees,”
said Mr. Hadsipantelis. “The
use of different finishes and en-
graving techniques bring the

RCM says banks
will accept NCLT
By Bret Evans
The Royal Canadian Mint
says a system exists to re-
deem non-circulating coins
for face value, and they will
be taking steps to get the
banks more involved.
“There is a process in
place with financial institu-
tions to take Canadian col-
lector coins and exchange
them with customers at face
value, though this has al-
ways been a voluntary ar-
rangement,” Mint official
Alex Reeves told Canadian
Coin News. “If customers
have difficulty exchanging a
collector coin at a bank
branch, it’s best to ask their
branch to contact their head
office for clarification.
“The Mint is re-communi-
cating with financial institu-
tions to remind them that a
redemption process is avail-
able to them and we will con-
tinue providing updates to
them on our face value col-
lector coin program as new
coins are issued,” added.
Reeves said he would not
give details on the program,
as it is an RCM internal pro-
cess.
“We won’t disclose the
mechanics of an internal ar-
rangement between the Mint
and financial institutions. All
the customer needs to know

An essential resource
for the advanced
and beginning collector
$3.50
is that there is a process
available and they should
ask at their branch, which
will tell them how to pro-
ceed,” he said.
The statement was in re-
sponse to an article in the
previous issue of Canadian
Coin News, reporting that
dealers and collectors had
expressed concern about get-
ting face value for non-circu-
lating legal tender coins
(NCLT) in general and the
popular face value series in
particular.
Reeves said that while the
coins are legal tender, they
cannot be spent the way cir-
culating coins would be re-
deemed.
“The Royal Canadian
Mint’s face value collector
coins, sold for the same price
as their denomination, offer
peace of mind to customers
new to coin collecting since
they can be redeemed at
their stated face value,” he
said. “This is consistent with
the definition of legal tender
in Canada. Since collector
coins are non-circulating le-
gal tender, they cannot be
spent like ordinary change
and the Mint has never sug-
gested such coins can be
used like cash in any of its
advertising.”

LAST CALL! CALL RIGHT AWAY TO CONSIGN!

RESULTS FROM THE 2014 RCNA AUCTION:

Well let’s start this way.

Thanks to all who participated – consignors/buyers and all

who volunteered to make the RCNA and the RCNA Auction
a massive success.
The Auction featured 4 sessions, 3 of which were live public
sales and the 4th strictly an internet sale. Rarely do we find
such a large assortment of as many rarities as were offered
in this sale, be it banknotes, tokens, and/or coinage, there
was material for all levels of collectors.
All sessions proved to be very popular as both floor and in-
ternet attendance were very high. The sessions went off with-
out a hitch and proved to be very entertaining with lots of
floor action and some most interesting phone bids as well.
As auctioneers we always go into these venues with certain
expectations but when these expectations are exceeded,
as was the case in this sale, it always puts a smile on our
faces and again proves that the market is on the rignt track.
Success is not necessarily measured by the quantity of
pieces sold but rather the percentage at which the items
sell. This kinda sets the standard on where the market stands
price-wise and based on this, the market looks promising.
Several items (25+) sold for $10,000 - $40,000+ range, 25+
pcs sold for $5,000 - $9,999. Again a 1921 half took the stage
selling for $45,000+ and the King of Gold 1916c Soveriegn
bringing in $45,000+. Some scarce 1911 Proofs also brought
in a combined $50,000+.
Overall a great time, again, many thanks to our staff, The
RCNA staff, consignors and bidders.
We hope to see you all in Halifax in 2015 for the next RCNA
venue and we hope to be able to provide another superb
selection of auction material.
Thank you,
Marc

Central bank put an end to chartered notes’ circulation
Notes &
Bills
By Stanley Clute

T he Bank of Canada was cre-

ated by the federal govern-
ment, under Prime Minister
Richard Bedford (R.B.) Ben-
nett’s Conservative govern-
ment, as a response to a recom-
mendation from the Royal
Commission on Banking and
Currency. This report, brought
down in 1933, recommended
that the government establish a
central bank for the country.
This new institution would
act as the Canadian govern-
ment’s banker, a role filled until
then by one of the chartered
banks. In 1934 the Bank of Can-
ada was created as a privately
owned corporation by an act of
Parliament. In this respect it fol-
lowed the example set by the
Bank of England in London

the English government’s
banker in 1694 as a privately
owned and operated institu-
tion.
The new Canadian central
bank’s capital was set at $5 mil-
lion, which was made up of $50
shares that were sold to the
public. When the Liberals were
elected to form the government
shortly thereafter, new Prime
M i n i s t e r Wi l l i a m Ly o n
Mackenzie King set out to na-
tionalize the Bank of Canada.
This process was completed in
1938 when King’s government
bought up all the publicly held
shares and the bank became a
Crown corporation. At the time
of the bank’s establishment, the
paper money in circulation in
this country consisted mostly

issued by the Department of Fi-
nance and the notes issued by
the chartered banks.
With the creation of the Bank
of Canada, the Dominion notes
were ordered withdrawn from
circulation and the chartered
banks were ordered to gradu-
ally withdraw their own notes.
Thus the only notes to eventu-
ally be in circulation would be
those issued by the new central
bank.
The last issue of chartered
bank notes is the Royal Bank of
Canada $5 bill dated 1943. In
1935, the newly formed Bank of
Canada took over the responsi-
bility for issuing government
paper money from the Depart-
ment of Finance. Its notes were
of a smaller format than the
Dominion of Canada notes,
measuring only 15 by seven
centimetres, the reduced size
being a cost-cutting measure.
About this time the surviv-
ing chartered banks were also
reducing their notes to the
smaller format, though their
note-issuing days were draw-
ing to a close. The Bank of Can-
ada’s 1935 series consisted of
separate notes in the English
the silver jubilee of King George
V. All of the regular notes, with
the exception of the $500 and
$1,000, follow the same basic
format, carrying a portrait of a
member of the Royal Family in
an oval at the left, a counter in
the middle, and the bank’s seal
at the right.
The 1935 $1 bill features a
portrait of King George V in an
oval frame facing three quarters
left at the left-hand side of the
note’s face. The back of the note
features an allegory represent-
ing agriculture (Canada’s econ-
omy being much more depen-
dent upon farming in those
days).
Queen Mary, the wife of
George V, appears at the left on
the face of the 1935 $2 bill, fac-
ing three-quarters right. Before
her wedding to George she was
known as Mary of Teck (being
by heredity a princess of Teck
in Germany, though she was
born in England). As queen she
held the titles of queen consort
of the United Kingdom and the
British Dominions, and Em-
press of India. Looking at her
portrait, one might well imag-
ine that “as queen she set a tone
man god Mercury in a trans-
portation allegory.
Before Prince Edward be-
came King Edward VIII for a
short time (and afterwards the
Duke of Windsor), he was the
Prince of Wales. It is his portrait
that appears in an oval at the
left side on the face of the 1935
$5 note. The vignette on the
back of this note represents
electricity.
The face of the $10 bill fea-
tures a portrait of Princess
Mary, who held the titles of
Princess Royal and, after her
marriage, Countess of Hare-
wood. The third child and only
daughter of King George V and
Queen Mary, she died in 1965.
The theme for the back of the
note returns to agriculture with
an allegory representing the
harvest.
The face of the $20 note fea-
tures a portrait of the young
Princess Elizabeth (who grew
up to become our present
Queen Elizabeth II) at the left.
The back features another agri-
culture allegory.

John Shaw token was source of controversy
Colonial
tokens
By Tim Grawey
I n early 19th-century Lower
Canada, a shortage of coinage
combined with the potential for
a tidy profit led many specula-
tors and merchants to issue
lightweight tokens.
Examples of these range from
numerous counterfeits to an-
onymous tokens such as the
Montreal 1816 halfpenny (Bre-
ton No. 531), the 1830 and 1841
Canada halfpennies (Breton No.
532), Spread Eagle imitations
(Breton No. 994) and several
Bust and Harp tokens (Breton
No. 1012). The fact that this
practice was so widespread is
an indicator that it was accepted
as at least a temporary remedy
until the Bank of Montreal and
other banks began to issue
provincially approved tokens.
Among the businesses that
struck up the courage to do this
with their name appearing on
tokens was Quebec town hard-
ware merchant John Shaw. The
obverse of his copper token
issued in 1837 portrays a scythe
and spade crossed over a tea
kettle. Below is found a knife
and fork crossed, while a hand-
saw is seen at the right and a
vise on the left. Of course, these
are all items that could be found
in a hardware store at the time.
The reverse illustrates the in-
scription on six lines of “J.
SHAW & CO / IMPORTERS /
OF/ HARDWARES / UPPER
TOWN / QUEBEC.”
In his 1869 book Coins, Tokens
and Medals of the Dominion of
Canada, Alfred Sandham stated
that in a letter, Shaw wrote,
“this coin was imported from
Birmingham, in 1837, and was

have been popular with patriots.
issued the same year, but I do
not know the name of the Die-
Sinker, nor the quantity im-
ported.”
The 1842 Census of Lower
Canada lists Shaw as a hard-
ware merchant residing on St.
John Street in the Notre Dame
district of Quebec, likely the
same location as his store. It is
not certain how long Shaw’s
business continued, although
the 1851 census records Shaw
as 40 years old, born in England
and operating a hardware store.
His wife Mary, three sons and
two daughters resided with
him along with three other per-
sons, possibly members of his
extended family.
In an article entitled, “The
tokens of J. Shaw,” which ap-
peared in the December 1962
edition of the Canadian Numis-
matic Journal, J.J. Prenoveau out-
lined the hullabaloo that erupted
once the Shaw tokens were in
circulation. Prenoveau quoted
one of several letters to the
editor, this one appearing in the
June 5, 1847 edition of the Cana-
dien newspaper. The letter, “Be-
ware of Tokens!” states, “In re-
moving from circulation copper
currency that does not bear the
effigy of royalty, most of the
people suffer a financial loss.
This is most unfortunate! If we
don’t take care, there is a certain
Mr. Shaw, a hardware merchant
on St. John Street, who is prepar-
ing such a loss for us. He is tak-
ing advantage of the scarcity of
currency to circulate tokens

which do not have full value.

A lbert Edward Way is an-

other early Canadian nu-
mismatist known only for his
numismatist’s cards. He was
born on April 1, 1872 in Sophi-
asburg, Prince Edward County,
Ont. His parents were Israel
Tripp Way (1839-99), a farmer,
and Mary Ann Foster (1841-96),
and he was a descendant of
United Empire Loyalists of
New York Dutch origin.
His great-grandfather, Daniel
Blake Way had settled in Prince
Edward County about 1781,
making the Way family one of
the oldest pioneer families in
the county. The Way farms were
a little northwest of the town of
Picton.
As a young man, Way served
as a private in the 16th Regi-
ment, Prince Edward Infantry
and continued in the family oc-

cupation of farmer. On Sept. 6,
1897, he married Annie Luella
Mills (1876-1943), the daughter
of a Sophiasburg storekeeper,
and the couple had two boys,
Leo Foster Way and Raymond
Perry Mills Way. By 1901, ac-
cording to the federal census,
Way’s family was farming in
Sophiasburg Township.
In 1903, Way ordered his first
numismatist’s “card” from the
Cranston Company in Galt,
Ont., 25 in each of aluminum,
copper, brass, and “german sil-
ver,” a type of cupro-nickel-zinc
alloy. Its simple design pro-
claims him as a numismatist
from Bethel, Ont., and his col-
lecting interests rather vaguely
as “Rare Coins, Tokens & Med-
als.” Bethel is not a town or vil-
lage, but the name of a rural
road about halfway between
Picton and Demorestville.
However, coins, tokens and
medals were not his only col-
lecting interests. In 1904, he or-
dered a second card, repeating
his claim to be a numismatist in
Bethel, but this time indicating
on the reverse that he was a

artifacts was a popular hobby
at the time, with many hobby

Way’s second token issue,
with a more ornate design, was
issued mainly in nickel (report-
edly 85 pieces) and, according
to Albert Frey’s report on them

He repeated this same adver-

some time, for example in June

Canadian history and heritage take pride of place on new coins
T he Charlottetown Confer-
ence, a key event leading
up to the formation of Canada,
is the subject of a new 50-cent
coin.
The conference, held in
1864, was originally
planned to discuss the
union of the Maritime prov-
inces, however at the last
minute the Province of Can-
ada, representing present day
Ontario and Quebec, asked to
be included. That conference
led to a second meeting in Que-
bec City a month later, which
hammered out the details for
Confederation two years later.
The conference was held
Sept. 1- 9, with events at the
Provincial legislature and the
governor’s residence.
Provincial emblems and a
maple leaf form the basis
of a coin issued for the
Charlottetown and Quebec
conferences.
The .9999 gold coin com-
memorates the conference with
an image of a maple leaf, with a
rose, thistle, fleur de lis, and
shamrock superimposed. The
symbols represent the Cana-
dian provinces at the time of
Confederation. It was designed
by Matthew Bowen and it is a
reinterpretation of the 1964 sil-
ver dollar, designed by Dinko
Vodanovick, which used the
same symbols inside a circle.
The small coin measures just
13.9 mm across and weighs 1.27
grams. The mintage limit is
7,500.
Big Money
The Royal Canadian Mint
has also turned to Canadian
coins for a new series, called
the big coin series.
The six-coin set will consist of
silver five-ounce coins repeating
the design of Canada’s current
circulating coins from five-cent
through to two dollars.
20 October 7, 2014 • Canadian Coin News • www.canadiancoinnews.ca
The loon is the first coin
in a set of oversized silver
coins with selective gold
plating.
The first coin in the series is
a representation of the loon
dollar. It features selective
gold plating on the edge and
loon design on the reverse,
and on the Queen’s effigy
on the obverse. A similar
treatment will be used for
the other coins in the se-
ries.
The mintage limit for
the series is 1,500 of each
coin. Half of those will be
set aside for complete sets,
which are being sold by
subscription. All of the coins
have the same specifications
of 157.6 grams and a diameter
of 65.25 mm.
Canadian History
Another moment in Cana-
dian history is captured on a
coin commemorating the Vi-
kings arrival in Canada, the
fourth coin in the 10-coin ex-
ploring Canada series.
Two more coins remain to
be issued in 2014, with the fi-
nal coin scheduled for Janu-
ary 2015.
Designed by John Mantha,
the coin shows a Viking long-
boat coming ashore on the
coast of Vinland, the name
A Viking vessel prepares
to land on the shore of
Newfoundland.
given by the Vikings to North
America. The captain is
shown in front, pointing to
his selected landing site.
The $15 coin is struck in
.9999 silver with a diame-
ter of 36.07 mm and weight
of 23.17 grams. It has a
mintage limit of 15,000.
Set Honours Carr
Canadian artist Emily
Carr’s work has been used for
a three-coin set, in silver, gold,
and platinum.
Each coin is based on a dif-
ferent painting by Carr, who
is internationally known for
her paintings of the land-
scapes and people of Cana-
da’s West Coast.
Born in 1871, Carr was en-
couraged to study art. By 1905
she was teaching at a Vancou-
ver school, later moving to
Europe to continue her own
studies. She returned to Can-
ada, and continued to paint,
not achieving full recognition
until after her death.
The three coins are based
on works in different medi-
ums.
The $20 silver coin is based
on her 1930 oil painting Totem
Forest. It has a purity of .9999,
weight of 31.39 grams, and di-
ameter of 38 mm.
The gold coin is based on
her 1930 watercolour and
graphite piece Zunoqua. It has
a purity of .9999, weight of
31.16 grams, and diameter of
30 mm.
The platinum coin features
her 1941-42 oil painting A
Skidegate Beaver Pole. It is is-
sued in .9995 purity, usually
used for Canadian platinum
coins, with the same weight
and diameter as the gold
coin.
The coins are sold as a set
of three, with a mintage limit
of 100 coins. It is the first time
A three-coin set is based on the work of famous Canadian artist Emily Carr.
The Big Dipper stands out in the latest glow-in-the-dark coin.
the RCM has issued a set of
three coins in different metals,
but only offered for sale as a
complete set.
Starry Nights
A new series of glow-in-
the-dark coins pay tribute to
the best-known constellation
in the northern skies, the Big
Dipper. The seven stars of the
Big Dipper form the basis of
the constellation known as the
Great Bear. The stars have
been seen as a bear by the an-
cient Greeks and Romans as
well as by First Nations peo-
ples in North America.
The new coin is part of a
four-coin series paying tribute
to the role of the Great Bear in
native culture and mythol-
ogy.
The $25 coin shows three
Ojibwa hunters answering
their elder ’s call to stop the
Great Bear before it kills all
the animals in the forest and
causes a famine.
The coin, designed by Cyril
Assiniboine, is rendered in
colour, with the hunters in the
foreground and the night sky
background a dark indigo.
The RCM’s glow-in-the-dark
treatment is applied to the
seven stars, so they stand out
in the dark. The same treat-
ment is applied to the packag-
ing, with glow-in-the-dark
stars applied to each box.
When placed together the
four boxes also make up the
image of the Great Bear.
The $25 coin is struck in
.9999 silver with a weight of
31.83 grams and diameter of
40 mm. The mintage limit is
7,500 coins.
It is not the first time the
Big Dipper has appeared on
Canadian coins.
In 2006 the Big and Little
Bear constellations were fea-
tured on a set of four palla-
dium $50 coins.
The coins, which show the
four seasons, had the constel-
lations and foreground in
frosted finish, and back-
grounds later etched to a dark
colour.
Early Traditions
The final coin in the series,
tradition of hunting, shows
an aboriginal hunter with a
bow, taking aim at a flock of
Canada geese.
According to the RCM,
hunters along the bird’s mi-
gration pack considered this
an annual bounty, as it pro-
vided several months’worth
of food in some commun-
ities.

Most low Internet prices too good to be true
Errors &
Varieties
By John Regitko
I have written previously
about the ridiculously high
pricing on some eBay and other
online listings.
For example, I have had con-
siderable fun with the $7.1-mil-
lion cent error that has been of-
fered on eBay and Webstore
under five different noms de
plume and lengthy write-ups
typical of Internet exaggera-
tions.
Some intentionally “fun” list-
ings of normal coins by “jenny-
scoinzoo” of Winnipeg were
brought to my attention by
Oleg B. and Kathy R. Jenny lists
ro l l s o f “ M e n ’ s C o l o re d
Hockey,” “Veteran Quarters”
and Roughriders loonies for a
cool $1 million.
You might consider another
cool $1-million coin, as shown
in Figure 1, an off-centre Lin-
coln cent. It is not every day
that a $1-million coin like this
comes along.
A $10 coin like this maybe,
but not a million!
figure 2. The owner of this 1919 canadian large cent has an explanation why he has set
the opening bid at $100,000.
22
If you don’t want to spend a
cool million, Kathy R. brought
to my attention a listing by “an-
tiqueslilshop” for a “Rare 1919
1 cent dot unique? Many errors
wow - Make offer! Key Date?”
The listing also states: “Never
seen a 1919 dot (under the year)
1 cent before … not listed;
Unique? New error? New key
date?”
That’s a lot of question marks
that are included for something
for which the starting bid is
$100,000.
The coin is shown in Figure 2.
The listing shows four full
views, but no close-ups. Even if
I were to blow up the image,
the little bumps would not
show up well. Therefore, I have
selected the image with super-
imposed stars to point out the
number of bumps, which ex-
plains why the seller feels the
coin is worth more than 15
years of my Canadian pension
payments.
I felt you should see the con-
dition of the coin that you
would be getting, so I am also
showing the obverse. A lack of
explanation of the irregular
bumps on the reverse in the
listing or the many post-Mint
figure 1. it is not every day
that someone offers a coin
like this at an asking price
of $1 million.
October 7, 2014 • CaNadiaN CoiN News • www.canadiancoinnews.ca
cuts that disturb the field do
not disturb me as much as how
the bumps might really have
occurred, and the price.
The owner of antiquelilshop
even states in the listing: “I’m
not looking to get the buy it now
price – not at all. The high ridic-
ulous price is to bring more col-
lectors to my auction page so
they can see it and maybe help/
inform me about this coin.”
Since the owner appears to
believe that the coin is a genu-
ine error, if he/she sends it to
Canadian Coin Certification
Service (CCCS) and they certify
it as a genuine error, I will pay
the fee, which should allow you
to offer it for a bit less in a re-
listing than $100,000. If the er-
ror is deemed not done at the
Mint, you’re on your own.
These listings don’t bother
me because the owners must
know they have no chance of
selling them and are just hav-
ing some fun, right? I love peo-
ple with a sense of humour.
What does bother me, how-
ever, is when errors are offered
at what seems like reasonable
pricing, but are not really such
a bargain for various reasons.
This column deals with these
extremely attractive prices of
serious listings, whether it is an
opening auction bid or a firm
buy-it-now price.
For example, one of Jenny’s
other listings is for a Roughrid-
ers dollar for just 99 cents! Great
deal, eh!
But shipping is $3.99 plus tax
on both the price of the coin
and shipping. And it doesn’t
even have an error or die vari-
ety on it!
It turns out that the cost is
more than $5.50 for something
figure 4. This certified
triple-struck coin carried an
opening bid of 99 cents.
figure 3. This scarce 20P
mule from the u.k. carried
an opening bid of 10 cents.
that I have found in change in
Uncirculated condition more
than a dozen times even with-
out looking for it, and spent.
undaTed 20P briTiSH
error mule
An older eBay listing out of
the United Kingdom by “col-
lectormania” lists an undated
20p mule. Because of the two
dies used together in error, it
does not contain a date.
The high bid at the time of
closing for the coin, shown in
Figure 3, was a whopping 10
cents. Is it any wonder that the
listing states “reserve not
met?”
You think there is a bargain
to be had. Then you see “re-
serve not met” appear on the
listing.
neTHerlandS eaST indieS
TriPle-STruck coin
The listing by “nikmats” of
Garden Grove, Calif., shown in
Figure 4, is for an 1837 Nether-
lands East Indies one-cent coin
in VF-30 condition.
Unfortunately, you won’t be
able to see how eye appealing
the error is because there are no
close-ups on the posting.
Blowing up the image
doesn’t help because the image
is too blurry.
So what do you think we
should start the bidding at for a
triple-struck coin that was certi-
fied by PCGS? Let’s do 99
cents!
With four days left before
closing when I last checked the
listing, there were no bids.
Was it the fact that nobody
that accessed the site was inter-
ested in Netherlands East In-
dies? I don’t think so.

struck carries a starting bid of $1.99.
I think the problem is that
the opening bid was so low that
people interested in the coin
didn’t want to get involved in
the shell game of second-guess-
ing what the seller would really
accept.

The U.S. Mint has acknowl-
edged that a small number of
blank planchets missed the
minting process, wound up in
the edge-lettering press, es-

in the hands of people that real-

That would certainly be a nice
addition to a typeset of errors.
No bids.

knew they were not going to
get it anywhere near the $1.99
and gave up rather than guess-
ing what the seller would really
accept.
2005 auSTralia $1 cud
A listing by “aandpdavis” of
New South Wales, Australia is
described as a “2005 $1 mob of
roos coin, hard to get coin, not
many minted, let alone a mis-
take. Very rare rim cud error.”
The CUD is on the rim of the
obverse above the “STR” of
Australia between 1 and 1:30
o’clock. Because the CUD is
rather small, arrows point to it,
as shown in Figure 6.
Opening bid was $0.99 US.
Again, there were no bids
just before closing. Although

Breaking down the U.S. rationing code
Numismatic
collateral
By Lewis E. Tauber
I t is quite fitting that Cana-
dian Coin News recently re-
ported that the Royal Cana-
dian Mint is circulating a $2
coin to mark this year’s 75th
anniversary of the start of the
Second World War. In the Aug.
12 issue of CCN I supported
the Mint’s objective to raise
awareness of the war’s impact
on those at home in Canada
with an article titled “Second
World War rationing did its
part on home front.” This is a
follow-up to that story that fo-
cuses on how Americans pa-
triotically did “their share” by
giving up accustomed items
on the home front to win the
war “over there.”
There were decided differ-
ences between the Canadian
and U.S. rationing systems,
the way they were carried
out, and their effect on the
citizens they governed. Ra-
tioning in the U.S., much like
in Canada, became a way of
life for people on the home
front, affecting everything
from food and clothes to auto
usage. These days, Canadians
and Americans sometimes in-
herit ration books or discover
them in auctions or at flea
markets.
Even in the depths of the
Great Depression, Americans

use and one with only four stamps remaining.

tioning meant they were al-
lowed to buy only a small
amount, even if they could af-
ford more. Thus, rich or poor,
everyone got their “fair
share.” Rationing began in the
U.S. almost immediately after
the Japanese attack on Pearl
Harbor, when the Office of
Price Administration (OPA)
and its local boards estab-
lished and controlled a com-
plex rationing system with
books containing coupons.
Today, it can sometimes be
difficult to determine exactly
what some of these coupons
redeemed. Administrative
control was severely enforced
across the U.S. by 8,000 ra-
tioning boards. Any person
who violated rationing regu-
lations was subject to a
$10,000 fine, imprisonment or
both. The OPA proclaimed on
the back of ration books that
violation was equivalent to
“treason.”
When, for example, the ra-
tion books were first issued,
each household was required
to itemize and declare all their
canned goods. Coupons were
removed from the ration
books for the canned goods
they already had on hand.

Uniontown, Pa., had pur-
chased three pairs of shoes.
Another Book Three owner
had these three stamps re-
moved, tending to confirm
that the three were used for
shoes while recognizing that
the OPA may at some time
have assigned a different use
to the stamps.
The 1943 Sears, Roebuck
and Co. catalogue, offering
shoe sales by mail, stated
“simply detach number 17
from your War Ration Book
Number One (sugar and cof-
fee book) and pin it to your
order.” This is interesting be-
cause OPA stated repeatedly
in its books that the stamp is
void if detached. However,
under the “Shoe Rationing
Order,” the OPA permitted
holders of Book One to tear
out war ration stamp No. 17
when buying rationed shoes
by mail. Thus, the meaning of
any stamp is that attributed to
it by OPA in terms of its usage
and dates in effect. Whether
these stamps have tanks, air-
planes, or a navy ship, these
are simply identifying sym-

Posters support

As in industry and organi-

the message, for example, by
reminding food handlers to
wash their hands. During the
Second World War, the U.S.,
like Canada, made effective
use of posters. By 1943 it be-
came every citizen’s patriotic
duty to get on the bandwagon
and support the war effort,

Superman...
Continued from page 1
Hero to life and exemplify the
Mint’s internationally re-
nowned craftsmanship.”
Created by Canadians artist
Joe Shuster and writer Jerry
Siegel, in 1933, the character
was sold to Detective Comics
in 1937. Reportedly, Super-
man’s city of Metropolis is
patterned on Shuster’s home-
town of Toronto, and his em-
ployer, the Toronto Star.
Superman took a few years
to catch on, and they could not
find a publisher until 1938.
The first coin of the second
series is a $100 gold coin, with
a close-up of Clark Kent, su-
perman’s secret identity, peel-
ing away his shirt to reveal his
Superman outfit and signature
icon.
It was taken from the cover
of The Adventures of Superman
No. 596, from September, 2001.
The design is framed with a
series of concentric rings and
the hero’s muscles stand out
in relief. The logo is coloured
in red and black. Normally the
logo appears on a yellow back-
ground, but the artists used
black in this case, as a symbol
of remembrance for those lost
in the Imperiex War earlier in
the story.
The coin has serrated
edges and Proof finish,
with a mintage of 2,000. It
weighs 12 grams and has
a diameter of 27 mm.
The second coin is a
silver $10 reproducing
the cover of Superman’s
first appearance in Ac-
tion Comics No. 1, which
is arguably the most fa-
mous comic book of all time.
In the scene, Superman foils
the attempted abduction of
Lois Lane by stopping the
gangsters’ green car, hoisting
it high above his head and
smashing the front of it against
a rock. The gangsters are
shown fleeing the scene, in-
cluding a particularly terrified
villain in the foreground. Bril-
liant colour highlights Super-
man’s costume, as well as the
now-damaged getaway car.
With a world-wide mintage of
only 10,000, the coin has a di-
ameter of 34 mm and weighs
15.87 grams.
A silver $15 coin shows a
classic scene from Action Com-
ics No. 419, issued in Decem-
ber, 1972.
The reverse shows Super-
man with fists clenched and a
determined grin, as he takes to
the skies high above the bus-
tling city below, while his cape
flutters behind him. By
overlapping the inner rim
of the image’s field, Su-
perman appears to
emerge from the coin
itself. Limited to a

of 10,000, it has a weight of
23.17 grams and diameter of
36.07.
A modern contemporary
rendition is used on a $20 sil-
ver coin.
The revamped image has
the superhero in Kryptonian
battle armour, with a red belt
and blue trunks. In the back-
ground are the crystalline
structures of his Fortress of
Solitude. The image appeared
on the cover of Superman An-
nual 1, released in 2012.
The coin has a mintage of
10,000, diameter of 38 mm,
and weighs one troy ounce
(31.39 grams).
All of the silver coins have a
purity of .9999.
The 2013-dated Superman
coins, also released at Fan Expo
Canada, consisted of three $20
silver coins, one $15 silver coin,
one $10 silver coins, one $75
gold coin, and a base metal len-
ticular image coin. The mint-
ages of the gold and silver coins
issued this year are the same as
those issued in 2013. W

Loates leads the pack in RCM September launch
C anadian artist Glen Loates
has been selected to create
the first coin in a five-coin set
depicting the cougar.
Loates, who is a popular
wildlife artist in Canada, got
his start in professional art at
the age of 11 when he created
the daffodil logo used by the
Canadian Cancer Society.
The first coin in the set, re-
leased Sept. 2, shows a female
cougar standing at a rocky
mountain pass. As she looks for
the best passage, the rocks and
branches in the foreground are
rendered in striking detail.
The $20 coin is struck in .9999
silver, with a diameter of 38
mm and weight of 31.39 grams.
The mintage limit is 8,500.
The five-coin set will cover a
year in the life of the cougar.
The life of a female cougar
is the subject of a new coin
series.
Two other coins are also $20
silver pieces with the same
specifications. One shows a
couger about to pounce on her
prey, and has selective gold
plating; the other shows her on
a tree limb in autumn, with
colouring on the leaves.
The other two coins are a $5
gold and a $5 platinum with
the same design, a close-up of
the cougar ’s face, shown in
three-quarter profile. The gold
coin has a purity of .9999 and
the platinum of .9995, both
have a diameter of 16 mm and
weight of 3.1 grams.
The Royal Canadian Mint
(RCM) is selling the coins sin-
gly and by subscription. Sub-
scribers can opt for the entire
five-coin series, or just the three
silver coins.
Hat-Trick for Leduc
Another wildlife artist, Pierre
Leduc, had a good month, with
three coins included in the
RCM’s September offering.
While Leduc has created

ety of wildlife subjects, all of his
coins in the current launch have
a maple leaf theme.
The first coin is a $5 coin with
an image of two sugar maple
leaves, one superimposed over
the other. Often considered the
definitive Canadian maple, the
sugar maple is one of 10 maple
species indigenous to Canada.
The coin is struck in .9999
gold with a weight of 3.1 grams,
diameter of 16 mm, and mint-
age limit of 3,000.
The second coin is a $20 sil-
ver coin with a purity of .9999.
The design shows a cluster of
four maple leaves in fall colours,
ranging from greenish yellow
to bright red. The one ounce
coin has a diameter of 38 mm
and a mintage limit of 8,500.
Leduc’s third design is a sil-
ver $100 with a close-up of a
single maple leaf, with a spread
of leaves in the background.
With a purity of .9999, it has a
weight of five ounces, diameter
of 76.25 mm, and mintage limit
of 2,000.
More Ducks
Trevor Tennant, another
name familiar to numismatists,
has three coins in the launch
bearing his name.
The same image of two harlequin ducks appears on a base
metal and a silver coin.
October 7, 2014 • Canadian coin News • www.canadiancoinnews.ca 29
Two of the coins share the
same design: a pair of har-
leqeuin ducks.
The mated pair are shown
standing on rocks in a stream.
The colourful male is in the
foreground, while the light grey
female stands behind. The de-
sign is extended past the inner
frame to both sides. Both coins
are colourized. One is a
cupro-nickel 25-cent piece, with
a diameter of 35 mm and mint-
age of 17,500. The other is a
half-ounce $10 coin struck in
.9999 silver, with a diameter of
34 mm and mintage of 10,000.
Tennant’s final coin is a $200
gold coin showing white-tailed
deer.

Severance package opens new door
Collecting
101
By Peter Mosiondz, Jr.
Part 4 of a series describing
our columnist’s transition from
young coin collector to full-time
dealer.
M y wife received the news
as emotionally as I had
just a couple of short hours
earlier. Her concern was not
unexpected. “What are we go-
ing to do?” she asked. This
had been my thought as well.
What would we do?
Then it hit me like the pro-
verbial ton of bricks. I replied,
“Honey, whether we’re ready
for it or not, I am now a full-
time coin dealer.” It was a de-
cision that neither of us ever
had cause to regret some 35
years later.
I told her about the sever-
ance pay and the paid-up
health coverage. She was
pleased with that, but she still
had that look in her eyes that,
if they could speak, said, “Sell-
ing tiny bits of metal for our
sustenance. The children and I
do like to eat once in a while
and we do need to wear
clothes. You need to have your
head examined.”
If coming home each day to
answer the day’s mail and re-
turn phone calls was pleasur-
able up until then, being a full-
time coin dealer was exhilarat-
ing to say the least.
I became listed in the Yellow
Pages, a smart move as I found
out over time. Mailing lists
were rented in an effort to
reach out to new numismatic
friends.
I had to be cautious, how-
ever. Although I did not know
it then, this was the height of
the coin boom. I did know that
prices were rising much too
quickly and that whatever
moves upward too swiftly will
come crashing down even
quicker. History had proven
this all too well. When would
the bubble burst?
Uncirculated Morgan Dol-
lars were but one example of a
crazy coin market. I recall ob-
taining a few nice examples
for a client who just had to
own as many as he could. The
30
going retail price at the time
was nearly $200 each for com-
mon dates in choice condition.
I tried in vain to caution my
customer. I told him that the
price was unreasonably high,
but he persisted.
This is but one example.
Anything that remotely resem-
bled a coin sold, and it sold at a
price that was higher than it
brought just one week prior. I
had to be careful. I chose not to
tie up any funds in the higher-
priced coins and sets that were
escalating in price at a much-
too-furious pace. For the time
being I stayed with the popular
coins such as circulated Lincoln
cents and the like.
A call came fairly early that
Christmas morning. The kids
were excited over the gifts that
Santa had brought them and
we had arisen early to share in
their excitement. The phone
rang and I quickly reached for
it thinking it might be one of
our parents wishing us a
Merry Christmas.
“
Nora told me that her father was
meticulous in his collecting habits.
It was something that I was already
aware of as I lovingly handled his coins.
He told her on more than one occasion
that it was always best to demand
quality in anything that one collects.
His standards paid off handsomely.
The caller asked about a
specific coin on my newly is-
sued and very first price list.
He wanted it, but at a much
lower price than listed. I men-
tioned that the price listed was
very reasonable for the condi-
tion and grade of the coin and
that my prices were “fixed”
and not subject to discount. I
also mentioned that the price
he offered was less than what I
had paid for the coin.

The author, while serving a tour in vietnam.
He was still trying to negoti-
ate and by this time I came to
the conclusion that I did not
care if he bought the coin or
not. I knew that it was properly
priced and described and that,
if he did not want it, someone
else would be eager to obtain
it. And, after all, I wanted to
get back to the children.
His resistance was weaken-
ing a bit, but he still asked for
”
a better price. I told him that
the next time he found a cut of
meat too expensive for his
taste that he should approach
the butcher and ask him to do
a bit better on his price.
He laughed heartily and
told me to consider the coin
sold. It was my first sale as a
full-time coin dealer. He re-
mained a good customer and
friend for many years. I had
the opportunity to purchase
his collection when his health
failed him some years later.
Nora Stevens called early one
evening shortly after the new
year holiday. She had inherited
her father’s “really nice collec-
tion.” Would I be interested in
making her an offer? She didn’t
seem to have any knowledge of
coins or their values, so I
skipped the usual preliminary
questions as to whether the
coins were circulated or uncir-
culated and if the collection
contained any key coins. These
and several other questions of-
ten tell me if the collection is
worthy of further pursuit. All
that she was able to tell me was
that the coins were in sealed
cardboard holders.
She did not live too far away
from my office, so I set up an
appointment to take a look.
I opened the box, but was
totally unprepared for what I
saw. There were magnificent
examples of Indian cents,
Seated Liberty coinage and
other series, all in superior
condition. It was a valuable
collection and by far the best I
had ever had the opportunity
to purchase.
I carefully compiled a list of
prices, coin by coin, and felt
relieved that my severance
pay was safely in the chequing
account. I tallied my columns
of figures and then double-
checked them for accuracy. I
presented Nora what I thought
to be a very fair and generous
offer.
This collection was just
what the doctor ordered and I
desperately wanted to buy it.
Nora expressed a shocked
look at my offer. At first I
thought that I may have
missed something. Before I
had the chance to say or think
anything else, she told me
that I was the second dealer
to visit her and make an offer.
She informed me that my of-
fer was twice the amount that
the other local dealer had of-
fered. She told me his name
and I immediately recognized
it as one who had the reputa-
tion of low-balling anyone of
whom he could take advan-
tage.
Nora told me that her father
was meticulous in his collect-
ing habits. It was something
that I was already aware of as
I lovingly handled his coins.
He told her on more than one
occasion that it was always
best to demand quality in any-
thing that one collects. His
standards paid off hand-
somely.
She also told me that she in-
tended to obtain three offers. I
told her how badly I needed
the collection to get my busi-
ness off the ground. After a
slight hesitation, she shook my
hand and said, “You just
bought yourself a coin collec-
tion.”
We’ll pick this up in our
next instalment. Until then,
stay well and enjoy your
hobby. W

Hawaiian mint marks 40 years with several products
T he Royal Hawaiian Mint is
celebrating its 40 years of
trials and tribulations with a
special Proof Piedfort Collec-
tion struck from its original
hand-cut dies.
The mint was founded on
Sept. 11, 1974 by two ’60s kids
living on $30 per month in a
small “enchanted cottage”
without electricity or a car.
Life in Hawaii was close to
ideal in many ways. Then in
August 1974, Bernard von
NotHaus experienced a spiri-
tual epiphany that yielded 200
pages of “automatic writing”
regarding the interactions of
the economic, political and so-
cial systems that culminated
with the publication of the
economic research paper, To
Know Value, co-authored by
Talena Jay Presley.
In the beginning, the mint
was little more than an idea of
commemorating the Hawaiian
culture, minting the first coins
on the islands and using them
for barter within the little com-
munity of Ahualoa on the Big
Island of Hawaii that is more a
state of mind than any actual
location, as it has no stores or
even a traffic intersection.
Initially, von NotHaus and
Presley knew nothing about
minting or even running a

32
business, so they hitchhiked
to the library in Hilo and be-
gan their long trek to minting
what are considered to be
some of the most beautiful
coins in the world. Originally
named the NotHaus Mint, it
grew to become the Hawaiian
Mint and was reborn out of
bankruptcy as the Royal Ha-
waiian Mint in 1985, when it
had six locations on the eight
islands and employed a cou-
ple dozen people. Along the
way, the kids grew up, they
put their two sons through
private school and enjoyed the
glory years living on Diamond
Head. Many of the mint’s
works have been graded
PR-70 ultra deep cameo by
NGC.
But initially, the couple had
no idea how to mint coins. Ul-
timately, without any assis-
tance from the tight-lipped
minting industry, three origi-
nal dies were cut by EDM elec-
trodes made from hand-en-
graved copper discs at the
original 21-millimetre size.
Like the classic engravers from
the Greek and Roman tradi-
tion, the mint’s original dies
show a great amount of crafts-
manship from Nick Lenches,
the mint’s first engraver, who
until then had never engraved
a coin die or modelled an in-
cused 3D image.
In 1975, Renato Sasselli,
a skilled EDM machinist
in Tucson, Ariz., cut the
three original dies from
Lenches’ hand engrav-

ing that featured Kame-
hameha, Ahualoa Land Bank
and the Earth design. To cover
costs, Presley worked at Ar-
thur Murry Dance Studio and
von NotHaus worked for the
University of Arizona while
the dies were made. The very
first test strikes by the
NotHaus Mint were made in
Tucson. Production began
on Oahu, Hawaii in 1976.
In 1978, the mint moved
from the Big Island to
Oahu, renamed itself
the Hawaiian Mint
and had the three
original engravings
re-cut and seven
new engravings cut
by Lenches to com-
memorate the three his-
toric figures who interacted to
unite Hawaii. The original
Hawaii collection consists of
three commemorative themes:
Kamehameha, who united the
Hawaiian islands; Madame
Pele, the Hawaiian volcano
goddess of fire; and Captain
James Cook, who discovered
the Hawaiian islands. All 12
specimens measure 21
millimetres in diameter.
The mint is commemorat-
ing its 40th anniversary with
the Royal Hawaiian Piedfort
Collection minted in copper
from the original hand-cut
dies for 1976, 1977 and 1978.
The six-piece collection con-
sists of:
• Kamehameha obverse with
Ahualoa Land Bank and
“AU1GR” inner die reverse;
• “EARTH” design with
Ahualoa Land Bank and “1/4”
inner die reverse;
• Madame Pele obverse with
Volcano Island Bank and
“AU2-1/2GR” inner die re-
verse;
• “EDEN”
design with Vol-
cano Island Bank and
“1/10” inner die reverse;
• Captain Cook obverse with
Kona Coast Bank and
“AU5GR” inner die reverse;
• “ATLANTIS” design with
Kona Coast Bank and “1/100”
inner die reverse.
Only 40 sets will be issued.
In addition to the Proof
Piedfort Collection, the mint
will issue a “Founders Series,”
based on the original artwork
of Kamehameha, Madame
Pele and Captain Cook. The
original portraits issued in
1976-78 have been hand-
sculpted by Luigi Badia. The

teracted two centuries ago to

MintChip going up for sale later this year
By Bret Evans
A fter two years of develop-
ment, the Royal Canadian
Mint (RCM) is selling off its
MintChip digital currency.
“The Mint’s research and de-
velopment efforts have reached
a stage where the project is
ready to move to its natural
next step of commercialization
in the private sector,” RCM
MintChip director Bob Zintel.
The Crown corporation has
engaged Boston Consulting
Service to support its sale of the
product.
The MintChip was first an-
nounced in 2012. The chip is
similar to the SD card used in
mobile telephones. The cur-
rency amount is stored on the
chip, which also contains a pri-
vate key to validate trans-
actions. The chip tracks the re-
maining balance. While the
chip communicates trans-
actions and balances to the
owner, the key is provided by
the Mint, making the technol-
ogy as anonymous as cash.

announced the RCM launched

The portrait on the $100
note is that of Prince Henry,
the Duke of Gloucester. He
was the third son of King
George V and Queen Mary,
and uncle to our present
Queen. When his brother came
to the throne as King George
VI in 1936, he was appointed
potential regent for the young
Elizabeth and was therefore
required to remain in the
United Kingdom until she
came of age, lest the king
should die and she ascend the
throne as a minor. He had a
distinguished career, serving
for most of his life as a soldier
and as governor-general of
Australia from 1945 to 1947.
He died in 1974.

a developer challenge to gen-
erate proof of concept appli-
cations. The challenge in-
cluded a first place prize of
$50,000 in gold. Among the
applications developed was a
wallet app for smart phones,
and a point of purchase app.
The concepts were de-
veloped to the point that trial
projects were conducted in-
side the RCM, with staff con-
ducting transactions at the
cafeteria.
Earlier this year, the RCM
announced that it had stopped
working on the program.
The RCM has not disclosed
how much it has spent de-
veloping the MintChip.
According to the RCM, the
consultant’s first step will be
to work with the Mint to
package the product and in
determining how to find and
approach any interested par-
ties.
The MintChip is just one of
several digital currency op-
tions. In the 1990s a Mondex
cash card was announced in
Britain.
With the first series of Bank
of Canada notes, new $500 and
$1,000 bills were put into cir-
culation. The face of the $500
note shows a vignette of our
first Prime Minister John A.
Macdonald facing three-quar-
ters left at the left-hand side,
while the back features an al-
legory representing produce.
This was the last time that the
$500 denomination was issued.
The French version of this de-
nomination is too rare to esti-
mate a price, and the cost of
the same denomination in Eng-

quarters right at the left. The

Mint, money, and munitions in the Great War
The overlooked
story of Canada’s
financial war effort
By Bret Evans
W hen Canada went to war
in 1914, it was a water-
shed event in Canadian his-
tory.
For most Canadians, the
story on Canada in the First
World War is a story of battle-
field heroics, with an occasional
nod to the “home front.” While
much has been made of the na-
tion’s growth of self-identity
through its military achieve-
ments, the period also saw a
coming of age in terms of finan-
cial development.
In 1914 coins were the main-
stay of much of the economy.
The humble cent, now history,
had a purchasing power closer
to 25 cents. That gave a five-
cent piece the buying power of
a modern day dollar and a 25-
cent piece the equivalent of our
current smaller note, the $5.
A modern Canadian, looking
at the coins of that day would

find them different, but not
much.
The biggest change would
have been the cent. The coin in
use at that time was the large
cent, a full inch (25.4 cm) across
and weighing in at a hefty 5.67
grams, more than double that
of the last coins of that value
struck by the Royal Canadian
Mint.
Other value coins were silver,
with a purity of 80 per cent. A
different look and feel than the
plated-base metal coins now in
circulation.
The five-cent coin in use at
that time was also silver. In or-
der to keep the melt value be-
low its face value, the coin was
small, just 15.49 mm, and
weighed a mere 1.167 grams.
Nicknamed fish scales by mod-
ern collectors, the tiny coin re-
mained in use until a nickel
version was introduced in
1922.
The designs were also differ-
ent from our modern panoply
of Canadian cultural icons and
animals.
Most of the coins had similar

value and date. The obverses of
new coins would have shown
King George V, who came to
the throne in 1911. Older coins
would have had the bust of Ed-
ward VII or even Queen Victo-
ria, whose last coin was dated
1901, just 13 years before the
start of hostilities.
The inscriptions would have
been different as well with the
abbreviated Latin phrase DIE
GRA REX ET IND IMP, mean-
ing king and emperor of India
by the grace of God. The India
reference remained on Cana-
dian coins until 1947, when that
colony was given indepen-
dence.
A Canadian private soldier
received $1 a day, plus a 10-cent
per day bonus if he was de-
ployed in the field. A soldier
could expect to see deductions
from that in the form of fines
for minor misconduct, deduc-
tions to pay for equipment lost
or damaged through negli-
gence. Wounded soldiers re-
ceived full pay, but if they were
hospitalized due to venereal
disease, they were put on half
pay, and lost their field bonus.
Money had little use in com-
bat, so the pay was usually held
in an account which the soldier
could draw from when they
went on leave.
With more than 1,000 soldiers
on the strength of a typical in-
fantry battalion, and 16 battal-
ions in the first Canadian Infan-
try alone, plus additional artil-
lery, cavalry and support
troops, the cost of supporting
an army was larger than any-
thing Canada had attempted in
the past. The cost of equipping
an army was even more stag-
gering. When Captain Andrew
Hamilton Gault raised the Prin-
cess Patricia’s Canadian Light
Infantry at his own cost, he put
up $100,000, the equivalent of
several million dollars today.
The Canadian government
had started taking steps even
before the war. As tensions
mounted financial officials and
the Canadian Bankers Associa-
tion met to discuss the crisis.
Some Canadians, uncertain
about the future, had already
started withdrawing their sav-
ings from banks, often asking
for payment in gold as the law
allowed. On Aug. 3, 1914, the
day before war was declared,
the government passed legisla-
tion allowing banks to meet de-
mands from depositors with

their own notes, and removing
the requirement to use Domin-
ion notes or gold. Concerned
about a possible run on the
banks, the government also in-
creased the amount of notes
banks could issue.
On Aug. 10, the government
suspended the redemption of its
own Dominion notes in gold,
and gave itself the power to loan
money to banks. For all intents
and purposes Canada, along
with most other warring na-
tions, went off the gold standard
for the duration of hostilities.
Money to pay for the war
was first financed using the
government’s usual method,
borrowing money in the capital
markets of Britain, and later the
United States.
Costs continued to mount.
The entire government budget
of Canada in 1913 was $185
million. During the war that
budget rose to $740 million per
year, and government debt had
climbed to $1.2 billion, four
times the pre-war amount.
The government also issued
bonds. A series of war bond
drives raised a total of $2 billion,
the result of a publicity cam-
paign to make bonds part of the
war effort, and an attractive 20-
year interest rate of 5.5 per cent.
Not all bonds were re-
deemed, and today those that
remain are popular with paper
money collectors.
An unexpected avenue of
funds was taxation.
Labour and church organiza-
tions were concerned that big
business was making big money
and not paying their share. Pe-
riodic reports of war profiteer-
ing gave the government sup-
port for new taxes. Most nota-
bly was income tax, introduced
as a temporary measure. Taxes
were also imposed on luxuries,
such as alcohol.
Another way in which the
Canadian government grew fi-
nancially was the direct inter-
vention of government officials
in private business.
In 1915 Prime Minister Rob-
ert Borden replaced a govern-
ment committee with the Impe-
rial Munitions Board.
The board not only central-
ized control of munitions, but
built needed factories run by
Crown corporations, ships, and
airfields.
By the end of the war it
owned 600 factories, and was
Canada’s largest employer,
with nearly 290,000 employees.
The war also had a dramatic
impact on the Royal Canadian
Mint.
The production of gold $5
and $10 coins, only started a
few years before was halted.
The refinery was put in opera-
tion and gold bars of standard
weight and purity were pro-
duced instead.
The existence of a refinery in
Canada, and the risks involved
in shipping precious metal to
Britain across U-boat infested
waters, prompted the British
government to start refining its
metal in the country.
Gold from South Africa was
shipped to Canada, refined and
cast into bars, and then shipped
to banks in the U.S., to pay for
British purchases of war sup-
plies. The operation was con-
ducted in secrecy, but by the
end of the war, some 20 million
ounces of gold was processed
for the Bank of England.
Finally, a junior clerk and
part-time orchestral musician,
Alfred Percy Williams, left his
safe job at the RCM to serve in
the Canadian Army.
After surviving a gas attack
and the Battle of Ypres, and
serving at Vimy Ridge, he re-
turned to his career at the Mint.
In 1954 he was appointed
Master of the Royal Canadian
Mint, a position he held until
1959. W

Solid aS gibralTar
Gibraltar has issued a royal coin set featuring several firsts, including a portrait of Queen Elizabeth
II in front of the Rock of Gibraltar. The reverse of all three Gibraltar silver royal coins displays the Gov-
ernment of Gibraltar’s coat of arms, combining the coat of arms of the U.K. government with that of
Gibraltar. The second coin features the coat of arms in colour (the first coloured coin in Gibraltar his-
tory) and the third coin has a one-point natural diamond encrusted into the knight’s helmet, also a
first. The obverse features a portrait of Queen Elizabeth II. It is the first coin to depict the Queen in
rallying cry front of the Rock of Gibraltar. The coins are 37 millimetre in diameter, have a fineness of .999 and
To commemorate the anniversary of the beginning of the weigh 31.1035 grams. For more information, visit gibraltar-stamps.com.
First World War, the Perth Mint has released the ANZAC Spirit
2014 Declaration of War coin. The British declaration of war on
Aug. 4, 1914 was greeted with widespread enthusiasm and
jubilation across the empire, although those sentiments were
soon dulled as the casualties mounted and the purpose of the
conflict was questioned. In Australia, it was a chance for the
fledgling nation to prove itself in battle and to rally to the
cause. The coin’s reverse features a group of soldiers marching
underneath a representation of Britannia holding her trident,
and wearing a Corinthian helmet, symbolic of British liberties
and democracy. The inscription “1914 – When the Empire is at
War, so is Australia at War,” a red poppy motif and the Perth
Mint’s “P” mint mark are also incorporated into the design.
The coin’s obverse depicts the Rank-Broadley effigy of the
Queen, the year-date, the monetary denomination and the
coin’s weight (31.135 grams) and fineness. With a maximum
mintage of 7,500, and struck by the Perth Mint from one ounce
of 99.9 per cent silver in Proof quality, the coin is issued as le-
gal tender under the Australian Currency Act 1965. For more
information, visit perthmint.com.
double Honour for baby
The Royal Mint has struck a prestigious double-sovereign, usually only available to distinguished
coin collectors, in honour of the first birthday of Prince George of Cambridge. To celebrate the special
occasion, the Royal Mint released 1,300 double-sovereigns as a single coin struck to Brilliant Uncircu-
lated standard, the first time a double-sovereign of this striking has been made available as a single
coin rather than as part of a set. The sovereign bears the famous St. George and the dragon design,
created almost 200 years ago by renowned engraver Benedetto Pistrucci. The obverse features the ef-
figy of Queen Elizabeth II by Ian Rank-Broadley. The coin is struck from 22-karat gold, weighs 15.97
grams and has a diameter of 28.4 mm. For more information, visit royalmint.com.

lucky Pig
Coin Invest Trust proves once again that coins come in all shapes and sizes, and for many purposes with its re-
cent release, from Liechtenstein, for Palau. The coin is shaped like a pig’s silhouette, with the obverse and reverse
showing the animal from front and back, respectively. It is minted from .999 gold and part of a popular series featur-
featur
ing unusually shaped coins. The obverse design features the pig’s ears, eyes, snout and mouth. A four-leaf clover is
engraved in the mouth of the laughing pig. The reverse has a matte finish. The centre shows the coat of arms of the is- is
suing state, Palau, together with the official state name, Republic of Palau, and the nominal value of $1. With a mintage of
15,000 pieces, the coin weighs half a gram and has a diameter of 11 mm.

Paris Mint milestone

In 864 Charles the Bald founded a mint in Paris. Today, the
Monnaie de Paris is still producing France’s circulation and col-
lector coins. The change from an early medieval mint to a state-
of-the-art minting institution with various facilities is illustrated
in a five-part video documentary. Interviews and a glimpse
behind the scenes inform about a history of 1,150 years. Cur-
rently only a French version is available, though. You can find

Malone collection featured in upcoming Bell auction
By Bret Evans
G eoffrey Bell Auctions’
October sale will feature
the collection of Richard S.
Malone.
Malone, a Nova Scotia col-
lector, started collecting more
than 70 years ago, originally
from pocket change. In 1964
he attended his first Canadian
Numismatic Association con-
vention in Halifax, where he
acquired more than 50 lots in
the auction.
It was also a time when his
collecting interest began to
focus on gold coins and paper
money. As he attended other
events his collection grew.
The sale is being held Oct.
2 and 3 in the Bram and
Bluma Apple Salon of the To-
ronto Reference Library, in
conjunction with the fall To-
ronto Coin Expo.
The first session, Oct. 2 at 6
p.m., consists of world and
ancient coins, gold coins, and
decimal coinage.
Among the highlights is lot
105, an 1858 cent, Specimen,
PCGS SP-63RB. One of only a
few known it is provenance
to the Norweb, Temple, and
Bell collections. The estimate
is $10,000 to $15,000.
A more modern cent is lot
192, a 2005P on a zinc (non-
magnetic) core. One of only a
handful known, it is esti-
mated at $5,000 to $10,000.
Among the 25-cent pieces
is lot 303, an 1880H wide O
variety with the inverted
A/V, described as the first
one seen by the cataloguer. It
is graded ICCS VF-20, and es-
timated at $4,000 to $5,000.
There is a nice run of 50-
cent pieces, including lot 410,
a rare 1947 maple leaf, with
the “7” curved right. Graded
ICCS VG-10, it carries an esti-
mate of $2,000 to $2,250.
The sale includes a newfoundland 50 cents in mS-65.
44
Among the silver dollars is
a rare 1967 diving goose vari-
ety.
The diving goose was cre-
ated by a rotated die, how-
ever, at one time the Royal
Canadian Mint maintained
that all examples were back
door jobs, done by Mint em-
ployees. It abandoned that
claim in the 1990s. Graded
ICCS PL-63, it has an estimate
$800-$1,000.
Among the Maritime coin-
age is lot 508, a 1917C New-
foundland 50-cent piece,

The $20 silver coin has a pu-
rity of .9999 ounces, and weighs
one ounce. It has a hologram
treatment with colours ranging
from blue to red. The mintage
is 7,500.
The second version has a face
value of $200 and is struck in
.9999 gold with a weight of a
half-ounce. The mintage limit is
1,500.
The waterfall series
continues with an autumn
scene.
Second Waterfall
The RCM’s second waterfall
coin features an autumn scene
in a Canadian forest.
In addition to rocks and wa-
ter the design has a small
bridge above the waterfall, and
sugar maples in the foreground.
The design uses a combination
of paint, the silver coin surface,
and engraving to create a shim-
mering image.
Designed by Tony Bianco,
the $20 coin has a purity of
.9999, weighs one ounce, and
has a mintage limit of 7,500.
A large silver coin is host to a
complex design by Ellen Cowie,
representing the forests of Can-
ada.
The .9999 silver coin featured
a circular collage of plants and
animals from a boreal forest, all
linked together. Among the
dozens of species shown are the
ubiquitous sugar maple, bur
oak, Jack pine, beaver, black

the interrelation of various

bear, hummingbird, squirrel,
spruce, deer, Canada goose,
and blue heron.
The $200 coin has a diameter
of 50 mm, weight of 62.69
grams, and mintage of 20,000.
The second $5 silver coin is
the flowers in Canada series,
featuring a rose.
It is designed by Bert Liver-
ance, who designed the first
coin in the series, and has a
similar look.
Selective oxidation gives
the rose on the niobium
insert a yellow colour.
The rose flower is shown in
the centre, with some leaves be-
hind. The coin is struck with a
purity of .9999 and a niobium
core. A feature of niobium is
that it can be selectively oxi-
dized to create different perma-
nent colours, in this case bright
yellow. The coin has a weight
of nine grams, diameter of 28
mm, and mintage limit of
6,000.
Northern Lights
Julius Csotonyi has two coins
featuring the northern lights,
one with an Arctic fox the other
with a wolf. Both coins are part

of the extensive O Canada se-
ries.
The Arctic fox appears on a
$25 one-ounce silver coin, with
a purity of .9999. It is the fifth
and final one-ounce coin of the
2014 O Canada series, with a
mintage of 8,500.
The fox is shown leaping
over some water; the northern
lights appear as circles, as
they would be seen from the
magnetic north pole. The fox
and lights are reflected in the
water.
The wolf coin is a half-ounce
$10 silver issue, again with a
purity of .9999.
The wolf is shown seated on
a shoreline, howling, with the
lights overhead. The coin is
given a colourized treatment,
with the lights in green against
a blue sky. The mintage limit is
40,000.
More deer
White-tailed deer appear
again, on a $20 silver coin de-
signed by Desmond McCaf-
frey.
In this case, the coin shows
two fighting bucks. The males
have just rushed together,
locked antlers, and rise up and

All of the 2013 Superman
coins have been selling well
over the last couple of weeks
after the Mint announced that
they were issuing a 2014 Su-
perman set of gold and silver
coins. The Mint sold out of the
2013 Superman coins in record
time and the coins are already
selling for a 20 per cent-plus
premium.
The 1973 large bust variety
set has been moved up to $300
and the 2007 mule Olympic

push for dominance.
The one-ounce coin has a pu-
rity of .9999 and mintage limit
of 7,500.
The fourth coin in the RCM’s
series of large mammals on
small coins, has a grizzly bear
in profile.
Another interesting variety
being collected is low-num-
bered and special-numbered
certificates. Usually, a certifi-
cate numbered one to 10
should have a premium, with
certificate No. 1 being worth
significantly more than the
rest. The premiums vary de-
pending on the popularity of
the item. For example, the low-
numbered certificates for the
2012 special-wrapped one-cent
roll (farewell to the penny)
have sold for several hundred
dollars and for this product the
last numbered roll – No. 20,000
– sold for more than $7,000.
Special certificate numbers
have garnered extra value as
well.

number of new items on Sept.
2, has introduced a new series:

of 11 mm. It has a purity of

cents, the same as the other four
coins in the series.
For those with a taste for
something larger, the same im-
age is also used on a $300 plati-
num coin. That coin has a
weight of one-half ounce, pu-
rity of .9995, and mintage limit
of 250. W
