In 1968 Canada reduced the silver content from 80% to 50% in the dimes and even changed the content completely. Some are 50% silver and some are nickel. See if a magnet sticks if it does its nickel if not its 50% silver!

My mistake, I have updated the listing. I collect American Silver, I'm obviously not an expert on the variations amongst Canadian coins. I do love the Maple Leaf though!

I am positive it's the 50% Silver variety though, the weight is different between the two. A 50% Silver dime is 2.33 grams v.s. the 99.9 Nickel dime which weighs 2.07 grams. I checked the weight to make sure.

Thanks for the heads up!

No problem just trying to help is all. I'm far from being an expert myself. I've been collecting foreign coins for a few years now so I have picked up a thing or two.
