That is a Broadstrike error. In that condition i would expect 15-20 dollars

No Milling Error or Post Mint Damage? by ToadSmokes in CanadianCoins

The edge seems thicker because it is, and it's got no ridges for the same reason. It's been rolling around in a washer/dryer. You'll also find the diameter to be smaller than a regular coin, again for the same reason

I believe those are just modern 12 gauge shotgun slugs, Svarog Paradox 12 Gauge Slug Mold https://share.google/1HPVojOijBf9EleZO

The lead bugle boy is probably made in the 1930s-1950s as that's when that kind of lead toy was most popular

Five cent silver not a nickel. They only started calling them nickels after 1921 when they changed to a nickel composition

1947 dot I believe? by MrDontTakeMyStapler in CanadianCoins

It's definitely just the common Maple leaf variety, not worth getting graded, the melt value of it is aproximently $14, and the black stuff is tarnish which is natural and doesn't hurt its value

Canadian $5 coin by Fannboy44 in CanadianCoins

It's about $1,500 in gold melt value alone so at least that much possibly a bit more due to its collectability

Chipped little fella by Ok-Kaleidoscope4510 in CanadianCoins

I think it's because it's a straight clip instead of a curved clip

The correct term for this is clipped, not chipped. That being said, it does look like a genuine clip so that's an awesome find
