1971 CANADA 25 CENTS ELIZABETH II QUARTER COIN
1971 Canada 25 Cents Elizabeth II Caribou Quarter
This 1971 Canadian 25-cent piece features the iconic caribou design on the reverse, created by Emanuel Hahn, alongside the second effigy of Queen Elizabeth II by Arnold Machin on the obverse. Struck in nickel by the Royal Canadian Mint, this uncirculated business strike displays sharp detailing on the caribou's antlers and the Queen's crown. The coin is housed in a protective cardboard 2x2 flip, labeled with the KM# 62b catalog reference, ensuring the preservation of its original luster and surface quality. As a classic example of Canadian decimal coinage from the early 1970s, this quarter is a staple for collectors of Commonwealth currency and North American numismatics.
1971 Canada 25 Cents Elizabeth II Caribou Nickel Quarter
Condition: The coin appears to be in circulated condition, displaying visible surface wear, minor scratches, and softening of the finer details on the caribou's fur and the Queen's portrait. There is a noticeable layer of gray toning across the fields. The mint is the Royal Canadian Mint in Ottawa, though it bears no mint mark. The metal content is 100% nickel, as Canada transitioned away from silver for circulation quarters in mid-1968. This coin features the second effigy of Queen Elizabeth II by Arnold Machin on the obverse and Emanuel Hahn’s caribou design on the reverse. The strike type is a standard business strike intended for general circulation. The coin is not professionally graded and is currently housed in a 2x2 cardboard flip.
