Comments on: A Meditation on the 1935 Canadian Silver Dollar http://curatorandcollector.com/?p=130 A Blog about the Art, Museums, and Numismatics of the Northwest Coast Mon, 30 Aug 2010 06:12:01 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.0.1 By: Curator and Collector http://curatorandcollector.com/?p=130&cpage=1#comment-2376 Curator and Collector Thu, 27 May 2010 03:03:17 +0000 http://curatorandcollector.com/?p=130#comment-2376 The coin you have is not rare; a 1935 silver dollar has a retail value of $375 CDN in perfect, Mint-state 65 condition. It is not likely that your coin is in this grade, but as I can't physically see the coin, I wouldn't know. I do advise that you not sell the coin without knowing its grade; also, don't necessarily believe the first dealer you approach for an appraisal. I recommend taking the coin to a coin show to ask several dealers for their opinions.

To make matters worse, when I came back, I deleted the comment by accident, but input the fields from an email record. Anyway, to answer your question, all depends on the condition of the coins; they sell for as little as $0.75 (CDN), but in the best of grades the "Trends" section of "Canadian Coin News" has them going for $850 (CDN).
