Gilmore was before Darryl's time. We asked Ron Greene, who writes:

Canadian dollars made at the Royal Canadian Mint since 1952. - Numismatic Scrapbook Magazine : Vol. 25, no. 2 (Feb. 1959). - p. 257 - 254. - very comprehensive review of the details concerning every issue including varieties and quantities allocated to various banks by type

Finale on Canadian dollars. - Numismatic Scrapbook Magazine : Vol. 25, no. 9 (Sep. 1959). - p. 2144 - 2153. - very detailed discussion of published errors concerning the designers and production of dollars and the identification of the principle collectors of Canadian dollars from around the world

Canadian dollars counterstamped "JOP". - Numismatic Scrapbook Magazine : Vol. 26, no. 4 (April 1960). - p. 964 - 968. - an investigation into the appearance of dollars countermarked 'J.O.P.' which were first reported in the Winnipeg Tribune in 1947. Larry Gingras discovered that the issuer was Joseph Oliva Patenaude - a jeweller from Nelson, British Columbia. This article summarizes that story and greatly expands upon the existing body of knowledge about this subject

Canadian silver dollars : voyageurs and commemoratives. - H.C. Taylor; Somer James, Editors. - Winnipeg : Canadian Numismatic Publishing Institute, 1961. - 96 p., ill. - contains technical data and mintage figures for each silver dollar minted from 1911 - 1960

Parliamentary dollar background. - Numismatic Scrapbook Magazine : Vol. 28, no. 3 (March 1962). - p. 660 - 663. - detailed information about the background, production and distribution of the 1939 silver dollar commemorating the royal visit of King George VI and Queen Elizabeth

Double variant (two separate errors) Canadian dollar. - Numismatic Scrapbook Magazine : Vol. 30, no. 3 (March 1964). - p. 601 - 603. - the story of the discovery of a 1950 'Arnprior' Voyageur dollar with both the variation in the normal three water lines at the bow of the canoe and the complete absence of the lower right group of Northern Lights. As of the date of publication, this was the only known example despite the knowledge that two different reverse dies were used for the 1950 production run. Logically many more examples should exist

Canadian dot coins. - Numismatic Scrapbook Magazine : Vol. 30, no. 6 (June 1964). - p. 1545 - 1549. - Elizabeth Wyn-Wood tells the story of why 'dots' were intentionally placed on the 1936 dies - including a description of how this was accomplished. She also states that "at least four dies of each denomination were so marked". Curiously, the official Mint report fails to mention any 'dot' coins

Canadian dollar variants. - Numismatic Scrapbook Magazine : Vol. 30, no. 10 (Oct. 1964). - p. 2907 - 2909. - descriptions of silver dollar die varieties and feature errors

Canadian dollar history. - Numismatic Scrapbook Magazine : Vol. 30, no. 12 (Dec. 1964). - p. 3291 - 3293. - discussion of the emotions and economics contributing to a dramatic increase in the value of Canadian silver dollars
