Are US cents popular enough in Canada that they would rate a spot on your list? I live in update New York and given our proximity to Canada you might think we see a lot of Canadian cents here, but it's not really the case. Every once in a while they do surprise you though. A couple weeks ago I did find a decent 1945 George VI in a roll. But that is the exception, not the norm. Since my wife is Canadian, we save most of the Canadian change we find and repatriate it back to a Tim Horton's when we go visit her family.

80-96 is my guess. Those are some nice finds. I don't think I would get them professionally graded though. Post a few photos in the grading section here on CCF.

I live in Vancouver BC area, and pennies run around 20-30% US. Nickels, dimes and quarters are around 10%.
