Said of a coin that has been priced lower than the market suggests as a fair retail price. It may be a result of the coin being undergraded and priced at this lower grade instead. A coin bought at such a lower price, if the grade is as advertised, is a "steal"; a numismatic item priced at a low grade because its rarity is not recognized is a "sleeper". 1, record 1, English, - underpriced

The actual market value of the metal coined in a metallic numismatic object as distinguished from the face value. 1, record 2, English, - intrinsic%20value
Record number: 2, Textual support number: 1 OBS
Because most Canadian circulation coins were minted out of silver up until 1968, their intrinsic value is worth more today than their face value. Since 1968, nickel has been used instead of silver to mint most Canadian circulation coins. Thus, the intrinsic value of these nickel coins, dated 1968 on, is worth less today than their face value. 1, record 2, English, - intrinsic%20value

Jusqu'en 1968, la plupart des pièces canadiennes de circulation courante contenaient de l'argent. En 1968, on a remplacé l'argent par du nickel. De nos jours, les pièces de circulation contenant de l'argent en alliage et datées de 1968 ou avant valent intrinsèquement plus que leur valeur nominale tandis que les pièces de nickel frappées en 1968 ou après cette date, ont une valeur intrinsèque moindre que leur valeur faciale. 1, record 2, French, - valeur%20intrins%C3%A8que
