Item description:

  • Two silver (92.5%) Canadian 25-cent coins featuring 1910 (final year of King Edward VII) paired alongside the 1911 (first year of King George V).

  • The 1911 quarter carries with it a built-in premium because the Royal Canadian Mint accidentally omitted “Dei Gratia” (By the Grace of God) from the design that year and became known as the scandalous “Godless” quarter causing a public outcry at the time.

  • Both coins ungraded but likely reach mid-range of circulation grading and appear to have natural patina. See photos.

  • Coins are stored in plastic coin pouches/sleeve and were part of a large estate coin collection.
