“The mystery of how the coin came to be where it was discovered is likely to remain for some time.
“’It’s
difficult to explain at this point why it’s there, who dropped it. It’s not the
sort of thing that you’d expect to be hanging out of the pockets of migratory
fishers,’ says Brake.
“According
to the former curator of the Bank of Canada’s Currency Museum, Paul Berry — who
worked with the team studying the find — it was likely no longer in circulation
when it was lost, but that doesn’t help provide answers as to how it got there.”
