1968 Nickel, RCM Canada 10-cents ICCS Certified MS65

In 1968, just over 87 million 10-cent coins made of nickel were minted at the Royal Canadian Mint, while another 85 million pieces were minted at the United States Mint of Philadelphia. You can differentiate the two by looking at the reeded edges; the Royal Canadian Mint variety are distinguishable by the bottoms of the grooves, which are V shaped, while the Philadelphia Mint variety has flat bottoms.
