Description

Elevate your collection with this stunning 1985 Canadian Penny. Struck at the Royal Canadian Mint with specially polished dies, this Proof-Like (PL) specimen offers a level of detail and reflective brilliance that standard circulation pennies simply can’t match.

This coin captures the transition of the mid-80s era perfectly, showcasing the warm, deep luster of its high copper content.

Key Highlights:

  • Exceptional Luster: Mirror-like fields and frosty, sharp relief on the maple leaves.

  • Iconic Imagery: Features the timeless reverse design by G.E. Kruger-Gray and the sophisticated portrait of Queen Elizabeth II on the obverse.

  • Premium Quality: Sourced from a collector-grade Proof-Like set, meaning it has never seen the inside of a cash register or a pocket.

  • Investment Grade: Ideal for collectors looking to upgrade their 1-cent folders with a high-eye-appeal specimen.
