1936 Canada 5 Cents George V AU
This Canadian five-cent piece from 1936 represents the final year of issue for the coinage of King George V. Struck in nickel by the Royal Canadian Mint, this specimen survives in Almost Uncirculated condition, preserving the fine details of a design that circulated widely during the early twentieth century. The obverse features a left-facing, crowned portrait of King George V. Surrounding his likeness is the Latin inscription GEORGIVS V DEI GRA: REX ET IND: IMP:, a traditional royal title acknowledging his reign as King and Emperor of India. On the reverse, the coin displays its denomination and year of manufacture. The words CANADA and FIVE CENTS are accompanied by the numeral 5 and the date 1936, with the elements elegantly separated by stylized maple leaves. With a total mintage of 4,400,450, this coin serves as a fascinating window into Canada's pre-World War II numismatic history.
