What's a half crown?
Like fifty cents?

And why do you guys have Franklin Roosevelt on your coins?

And here is a penny. Which I guess is 1/100th of a crown. Whatever the fuck that is.

And it's just a little bit smaller than the half crown. Fucking derp.

You guys have Franklin Roosevelt on your money too - and there's a fucking beaver on the back.

LMAO!

The people who owned this house before me must have been world travelers.

I think it's Wayne Gretzky.
Here's the front.
That's totally Roosevelt.
Although it mentions George IV.
I think. Or some dude named Georgivs the 6th D to the C.

So Canada has an English King's name and an American President's portait on the front and a fucking beaver on the back.

I found other Canadian money. So far we have an Elk, a maple leaf and a sailboat.

It's like they had a contest for 4th graders to pick what goes on their coins.

A crown was 5 shillings in old money, there were 20 shillings to a pound. A shilling was 12d (old pence), so 60 pence.

After decimilisation shillings were worth 5p, so a crown would be 25p in new money.

OMG!

Thats where it went! The entire country has been looking for this coin since it was lost in the great crumpet and scone crisis in 1969. That's worth more than twelve bitcoins!

And lol at judging us on coin sizes. ALL your notes from a thousand to a dollar are the same size.

That IS daft. And unfair to blind people.

I don't know if I've never seen this or just never paid attention.

A dollar bill that says "Silver Certificate" at the top:

Now that it's fake money, dollar bills say Federal Reserve Note.

That is a beaut

I check coin star machines for the rejects when I walk by them, they reject silver coins usually because the weight is off

Have found 3 silver dimes and a silver quarter...Silver dime is worth 2 bucks and a silver quarter around 5 bucks
