8 The IFP · Halton Hills, Thursday, January 26, 2012 CANADIAN COIN ASSOCIATION IN MILTON NEXT WEEK! PURCHASING ALL GOLD AND SILVER COINS, AND ALL JEWELLERY! BY: AMANDA GERARD STAFF WRITER The Canadian Coin Association is finally coming to Milton next week, and they're interested in all those coins you've kept stored away for the occasion that you would look into them! Well, that occasion has arrived. Bring your coins to The Canadian Coin Association, and have one of their numismatic professionals assess their current market value in the collectible market, FOR FREE! Canadian and American coins minted before 1968, can fetch significant prices with international collectors based on; condition, collectability, and metal content. Because they represent a large database of collectors on an international level, they are able to make on the spot purchases on their behalf! This week, you could be turning that old jar of coins into a vacation! While in Vancouver, British Columbia, CCA was able to offer $79,000 for an 1893 Morgan Silver dollar minted in San Francisco. This specific coin is highly sought after in uncirculated condition, mainly because not many were minted in San Francisco that year. Collectors are willing to invest top dollar in order to add this gem, and other coins of its kind, to their collections. Recently, they were able to offer $30,000 for a Canadian twenty cent piece from 1858. Why? Because the collector, from Austria, had everything but that ONE coin for his series of 17th century Canadian coins and was willing to pay top prices to complete his set. Those two stories are just the tip of the iceberg for their coin experts. A silver dollar from 1948 can fetch anywhere from $500 to $13,000 based on it's condition. Collectors are eagerly looking for pre 1968 proof sets, coins with specific mint marks, coins from specific years and international gold coins. Don't even get them started on the 1921 Canadian fifty cent piece! Coins are their middle name. For a fee of $0 (that's right, its free), you can bring that coffee tin full of coins to our educated team of numismatist's, and find out if you've been harbouring a very well kept secret! Even common coins can have a significantly higher value than their currency due to their silver content. Silver dollars, fifty cent pieces, quarters, dimes, even nickels are garnering maximum value. With the silver market higher than it's been in thirty years, it's definitely the best time to turn old coins into a healthy pay day! Because they have the time and space to do so, they have included bullion assessment in their services. The Canadian Coin Association is able to make offers for your scrap silver. Old tea sets, stamp collections from the Franklin Mint, and silver bars, are all examples of items that could be purchased on the spot! It's a bullion boom, and everybody's winning! CCA's International collectors are also seeking gold coins from around the world. Maple Leafs, British Sovereigns, Kruggerands, Double Eagle gold coins and Gold Francs, are all examples of gold coins they are looking for on behalf of our collectors. Because of their success within the numismatic community, they are also able to offer maximum value on all other gold as well. With the gold market at over $1500, all of your broken gold, scrap gold, jewellery, even dental gold, can be turned into quite the fist full of dollars. What are you waiting for?
