Product Description
The 64th edition of Canadian Coins has shrunk! Plastic coil binding is limited to approximately 600-page books, after that the user friendly binding becomes user unfriendly. With the addition of 150 pages covering the Victoria Five Cent Varieties, and over 175 new mint products to list, under the old format we would be looking at a 650-page book. For that number of pages the spiral binding would not have sufficient strength to work effectively over a period of time…. More >>

EASY TO USE WITH THE HELP OF A SPIRAL BINDING. THE BOOK LAYS FLAT AND STAYS OPEN WHILE DOING RESEARCH AND COIN COMPARISONS. THE RED BOOK OF UNITED STATES COINS IS SIMILAR. THE RED BOOK IN MY OPINION QUOTES VERY HIGH RETAIL VALUES. CHARLTON’S STANDARD CATALOGUE OF CANADIAN COINS ALSO IN MY OPINION OVER INFLATES THE COIN VALUES.IN MY OPINION THESE VALUES ARE EXTREMELY OVER INFLATED.(VERY HIGH RETAIL). THIS IS WHY I DEDUCT ONE STAR. I GREW UP IN NEW BRUNSWICK. I PURCHASED MY FIRST CHARLTON’S COIN BOOK IN 1971. THIS IS A GOOD BOOK AND I RECCOMEND IT HIGHLY.

The Charlton Catalogue has changed this year, dividing itself into two volumes – Volume One for standard circulating mint issues and Volume Two for non-circulating legal tender issues.
As has been the custom for the past several years, there is a special feature on die varieties, this year focusing on the Victoria five cent coinage.
Overall, this is an excellent resource that belongs in the library of every collector of Canadian coins.
