It's my 68th Birthday today, and as usual, my wife has bought me a beautiful gift.

Sorry, not the best photograph

Obviously a Canadian set.

$1, $2, $3, $4 & $5, all in .9999 silver dated 2005.

It has a Maple Leaf Privy Mark on reverse of each coin.

Cannot find any information in Krause catalogue I have, nor on Numista

Better photo after removing from box

Beekeeper,
What is Charlton?

Just seen your private message.

My wife paid £59.00 for the set.

Is the 2004 set on Numista?

​Sorry, I was being lazy," A Charlton Standard Catalogue Canadian Coins , Volume Two, Collector and Maple Leaf Issues, 7th Edition, 2017" is the full title. No sets of any sort here yet and I don't think they are on numista individually either.

Now, having returned from my star gazing weekend, I have been able to study the coins far closer than I had before I had to rush off to the Brecon Beacons.

The date on the sellers ticket stated 2005, but they are all actually dated 2004, just as Beekeeper had stated that his Charlton catalogue had shown.
Sorry for any confusion caused. It was a small shock to me too.

Validated and in catalogue.
Thanks to everyone for the congratulations I received.

More congratulations soon, as I will be a Grampie to our first grand daughter, which will be delivered by C-section on 23rd October. Even better than coins. (Yes, I did say that)
