1942 Canadian Quarter Magnet
The Canadian quarter used to be 80% silver until 1967, when--like the US in 1964--it changed the formulation to save money. During a transitional year, from 1967--68, the percentage dropped to just 50% silver, and then from 1968 until 1999 they were mostly made of nickel. (Nowadays they're mostly steel, with nickel plating.) This one has King George VI on the front, with the Latin inscription mentioning that, among his other royal titles, he is also Emperor of India. This inscription was changed in 1948, when India became an independant member of the British Commonwealth.

Excellent all round, the printing is great and the magnet is streamlined, not chunky. The actual magnet is very strong. Very good quality and the price is low. Absolutely fantastic! Crisp, bright, clean.

I was expecting better. Image looks faded and the houses on the image are near folded underneath. Likely throw this in the bin.

My partner proposed on our first holiday and we ate tonnes of garlic bread. This was a perfect reminder. The magnet is strong and the quality and value for money excellent. Exactly as pictured. Superb.
