I've heard that Canadian coins are quite rare and I'm wondering why. Is it because of their limited mintage, or maybe due to a specific historical event that made them scarce? I'd like to understand the reasons behind the rarity of these coins.

Several rare coins have been minted in limited quantities, resulting in their scarcity in the market.

The rarity of these coins stems from the fact that many of them were melted down to extract their metal value.

Before 1922, Canadian nickels were made using either "coin silver" which contains 800 parts of silver, or sterling silver which comprises 925 parts of silver.
