ERROR 2005P Canada Regular Uncirculated Proof Like Set with Non-Magnetic 1-cent RARE

While the "P" mint mark on Canadian coins indicate that the coin is plated steel, a handful of copper-plated zinc 1-cent planchets somehow managed to find their way into the minting process. These coins are easily identifiable using a magnet, as the steel coins will immediately stick to your magnet, while the copper-plated zinc will not. Thus far, these coins have only been identified within mint sets, such as the Uncirculated Proof Like Set, such as this one, or the different varieties of gift sets that were issued that year.
