I'm in ON on a boarder city and go over and buy rolls all the time and it's getting less and less for finding Canadians, may get 1 every 2 rolls and it will be circulated.

Do you have to have a US bank account to buy a box of coins from a US bank if you're a Canadian? Are certain banks easier to buy from than others?

Live in MI and often buy a brick, ($25.00 in cents). The same is happening to me as mcshilling said, Quote:

And, so what are you finding in a $25.00 brick of pennies these days?

I have a US account but they won't sell me a box so I just get $10 or $15 at a time which I did today with .05 - .10 and quarters.

These pennies can be pretty filthy. Probably the filthiest of all the coins to collect. The amount of gunk and oxidation and damage is striking. But, the interesting thing is that the majority of my older "pure" copper pennies are in good shape - seems like its the newer material pennies, probably just copper coated ones, that are the most filthiest.

Last box three weeks ago:about which is close to average finds lately. 5 Wheats dates 1940's 50's 5-10 Canadian 1960's through 2000 25-30 1983 cents both P & D I weigh all my 83s looking for the big one. I ask for a Fed wrapped box with older coins. I once got 30 customer wrapped rolls. Never again. Each roll was turned obverse or reverse side up. Telling me I'm not the only one in this small town looking |

OK I just went through 20 rolls of US cents,
$2.20 copper
4 wheats 44-46D-51D and 56D
.12 Canadian one a 1948 in XF
So that's 12 out of 20 rolls Canadian

Thanks for the update! What years are the US pennies made of copper?

That 1948 was a good haul! Always love finding Georgies in rolls I open at work!

Between 1959 and 1981 Yes, if we are just discussing Memorial cents.  |
