1859 Canada Large Cent – Rare Brass Variety

A true rarity in Canadian numismatics, the 1859 Large Cent Brass Variety stands out as a coveted piece among collectors. Unlike the more common bronze issues, this variety was struck on a brass planchet, giving it a distinct composition and color. With only a limited number known to exist, it remains one of the most challenging pieces to acquire from the series.

Its unique metal content, combined with the historical significance of the 1859 issue—produced during a period of transition in Canadian coinage—makes this a must-have for serious collectors. Don’t miss this opportunity to own a scarce and fascinating piece of Canada’s numismatic history.
