#19999 means the 2nd last penny roll ever distributed in Canada, it deserves some premimum. To me, #1 means 20000th last penny roll in Canada and is just a special number as in all other coin releases such as #1/500, #1/10000. BTW, #19988 is 13th last penny roll and was sold more than 400USD a few days ago. #19989 is 12th last penny roll and is now on ebay and bid already over 200USD which still has several days to go.

People are just plain stupid! These were not even the last rolls made. Guarantee these were returns from Banks and the mint said what do we do with these coins. Then it dawned on them to sell them to the public at 10 dollars a pop make a few million and cheaper than melting them.
Then even better people started believing they are the last coins prodcued!
Crazyyyyy

I have to laugh at all the morons buying these products. Even the people who buy the boxes dated May 4 2012 are fooling themselves. The last pennies to leave the mint actually left this year. So when was the last 2012 penny produced, May 2012? When was the last 2012 issued penny? February 4, 2013. http://actionplan.gc.ca/en/initiati...nating-pennySo if you got a roll of pennies last year, sorry buddy, not the last penny ever issues. Definitely not the last ever produced. Effectively a box marked 2013 would be a 2013 issue penny even though it has a 2012 date on it. Those boxes should be worth a fair bit. Couldn't be more than a few million issued this year. Go find those boxes. |

Guys upstairs:
1) You all miserably missed this once-in-a-life opportunity to own one of several very last penny rolls in Canadian history.
2) Even more miserable, you guys still don't realize that.
3) The most miserable thing is, you guys will barely change your mind in your lifetime, even when you see huge auction prices on these several very last penny rolls after 5-10 years.
My 2 cents, anyway, I don't wish you could understand.
But, as long as it's not your business, please, stop saying these buyers are silly and you're genius. Please!

Dear Yumbo. How could anybody have received the last penny made? That penny is in a museum. How did anybody get the last roll of pennies ever distributed by buying a Farewell roll? The Farewell Roll were issues in 2012 and last pennies were issued by the Mint into 2013. The fact of the mater is people who buy these roll have convinced themselves that they have something special when all they did was pay a premium for a sicker on a roll of pennies. Symbolically you have bought nothing more than the last roll of a special edition release. Not the last penny ever distributed or made. Very sad, what a waste of money.
P.S. I wonder how people are protecting these rolls from damage and corrosion. The labels are very fragile and the outside pennies will tarnish if left exposed to oxygen. I hope nobody touched the pennies by hand.

What would it matter if people touched the pennies at the end of the roll with their hands? If the pennies are not actually the last ones produced, and if they are the same as all the rest of the pennies in the many many boxes of 2012 pennies, then the hologram sticker is the real thing that people need to preserve.

Who cares when these pennies were made if you don't like them don't buy them. People have the right to collect anything they want and pay any amount there is no reason they should be called stupid or anything else get a life and stop insulting people for what they want to buy with their own money
