QUESTION: Its a canadain penny with the queens head on one side and a leaf on the other side so again my question is,is it
worth anything?
Hi Harley,
The question now is why is the date missing. If it was removed after it left the mint (altered), it has no value. If it is a genuine mint error, it could be quite valuable.
You need to have the coin inspected by an authority on Canadian coins. That is outside my expertise but I am sure that there must be a professional coin dealer somewhere near you.
Good Luck!
Regards and Happy New Year,
