Description
**Important** Please read below description on how to avoid high shipping costs.
This is a 1896 Canadian 10-cent silver coin from the reign of Queen Victoria. The coin is composed of .925 sterling silver. The reverse, designed by Leonard Charles Wyon, features the denomination and date within a wreath of crossed maple boughs, surmounted by St. Edward's Crown. This coin is in a heavily circulated 'About Good' condition, showing significant wear across all high points, with details on the maple leaves and crown being flat. Although the date and lettering remain legible, the overall appearance features a dull patina with scratches and contact marks from extensive circulation. Please note that the obverse image provided in the listing is incorrect, displaying a King George V portrait instead. This item represents a piece of Canadian history with a mintage of 500,000.

Lodestar Auctions collects 7% sales tax for Illinois residents only. Live Auctioneers/Proxibid collects sales tax for most states. Check with them for sales rates for your state.

Shipping:
Pick up and buyer arranged shipping is always welcome. We offer in-house shipping for items that can ship through common carrier. All items will be professionally packed at a reasonable rate. If you paid for the item via Lodestar Auctions or Proxibid we will have your items packaged and send you a link to choose and pay for shipping on the Lodestar Auctions Website.
**Important** Live Auctioneers has their own shipping program. We find it to be very expensive and slow. This is the rate you see advertised when bidding. We do not recommend using them. If you do use them you must checkout via Live Auctioneers and choose LiveShip at checkout. If you pay via Live Auctioneers and want our In-house shipping you must choose self-arranged shipping at checkout. If you checkout via Lodestar Auctions this does not apply. I apologize if this is confusing, Live Auctioneers purposely arranged it this way to push their own overpriced shipping service. We are not happy about this and are trying to make it work.
Issues:
All items sold as is. We do our best to describe accurately and take plenty of non-touched up photos to best represent the item. Any lost or damaged item due to shipping must go through the carriers. Buyer pays any return shipping costs regardless of situation.
