10 Cents - Edward VII

Newfoundland maintained its own coinage system until Confederation in 1949, and these small silver pieces were struck at the Royal Mint in London — not Ottawa — reflecting the dominion's persistent preference for imperial rather than Canadian institutional ties. The 1903 and 1904 issues are the last of the Edward VII dimes before a gap in production; no Newfoundland 10-cent pieces were struck between 1904 and 1912.
