Monarch: The obverse (not pictured) of this coin would feature the uncrowned portrait of King George VI, who reigned from 1936 to 1952.
Composition: These coins were composed of bronze (0.955 copper, 0.030 tin, 0.015 zinc).
Mintage: In 1940, over 85.7 million of these one-cent coins were minted by the Royal Canadian Mint.
Historical Context: This coin was circulated during the World War II era in Canada.
Value: While the standard 1940 Canadian penny is not considered exceptionally rare due to its high mintage, its value can vary depending on its condition, with uncirculated or highly graded examples being more valuable to collectors. For example, a 1940 Canadian Cent in MS 64 Red grade has been listed for around $165 USD.
