WORLD'S SECOND CANADIAN COIN
THE LONGEST LIST OF THE LONGEST
STUFF AT THE LONGEST DOMAIN NAME AT LONG LAST
What was the world's second Canadian coin?
The 2nd coin that Canada would
strike would become the very most valuable it would ever produce but it wasn’t
even really a coin.
Once the Governor General Earl
Grey struck the first coin in 1908, the Currency Act was updated just two years
later. This Act made allowances for a $1 silver dollar to be produced as well as
gold coins in the denominations of: $2.50; $5.00; $10.00; and $20.00.
In 1911 the first coin from the
new allowances, the silver dollar would be the first to be struck at the British
Royal Mint.
