1947 Canadian 25 Cents Silver Quarter - George VI
This 1947 Canadian 25 Cents silver quarter was minted in the years following World War II during the reign of King George VI. It would have circulated through Canada’s post-war economic boom, the early Cold War years, and a time when silver coins were still everyday currency. A classic piece of mid-20th century Canadian history with honest wear that shows it was actually used and carried through that era.
