Thank you for browsing.

This is my absolute favourite overall Canadian nickel design. Though I do admire the 1967 Hopping Rabbit nickel, the effigy of George V (used on the 1922-36 nickels) seals the deal for me. As I've recently upgraded my George V nickel collection – with higher graded pieces – I now have these treasures to share with a fellow George V nickel enthusiast. Please see my other auctions for the other years in this series.

The winner of this auction will receive a total of four (4) Canadian 'George V' 5-cent (nickel) coins in circulated condition - one (1) 1933, one (1) 1934, one (1) 1935 and one (1) 1936. These coins have a metal composition of .99 nickel; diameter of 21.21mm; weight 5.44 grams and mintages are 1933 – 2,598,000; 1934 – 3,827,000; 1935 – 3,900,000 and 1936 – 4,400,000.

PLEASE NOTE – These coins are in circulated condition – please refer to photos. Grade labelled on coin flip is my best approximation based on 'Coins of Canada' grading standards. You will receive the exact coins shown in the photographs. Coin easels NOT included.

INTERESTING FACT: “In order to provide a 5-cent piece of a more manageable size, and 'because nickel is essentially a Canadian metal' the Canadian government introduced a coin of pure nickel in 1922, similar in size to the 5-cent coins of the United States.” CoC 2014
