Description

The listing, 1911 canadian "Godless George" cent coin A VERY SPECIAL COIN has ended.

A very special coin !! Made in 1911, this cent was nicknamed "the Godless George" because the Latin words "DEI GRATIA" (latin for "by God's Grace" were taken off. There was so much outrage from the public the words were put back on the coin the very next year. The George V penny was only minted a short time, 1911 - 1920, this is the first issue. This coin is loved and highly collectable, not to mention it is 100 years old this year and in nice condition . Thank you for looking at my auction and good luck.

I just can't do it, I hope you understand. What I am willing to do if your interested. I will go to the post office, wait in line, fill out the forms and mail it to you if you paypal the USA to Canada postage minus 44 cents. So if the postage is $1.60, you paypal me $1.16 and I'll send it to you. That is not a bad offer considering normally I just pop a stamp on it and hand it to the mailman. the coin is a good one and worth it, but up to you.

michelle- nice to see the fairer sex in the running. don't understand why coin collecting is typically male thing. women love to spend it, why not collect it ???? thanks for bidding

it's a male thing? lol, I've always loved collecting coins.

Apr 30th, 2011 at 12:25:45 PM PDT by

yeah, I know it is, but don't know why. women collect shoes, men collect most everything else. well, seems you gotta make a better attempt at this one then, or is smoke blinding your view of the keyboard ???
