I've begun to collect the copper Canadian cents since I would find them roll searching and appreciated the fact that they were more than a penny in metal as well as my Lincoln copper cents, I got excited the other day coming across a 1960 Canadian cent!

Interesting thread.

I'm Canadian and I collect Lincolns. Only very recently did I decide to start dabbling into Canadian coins.

I rather like the look of Canadian coins and so when I get them in my change here I set them aside. I can't rightly say I remember how I wound up with some of what I have - my loonies and toonies have no explanation for their presence in my collection. I think Canada's trying to invade it.

I only started collecting Canadian coins this year and have a decent collection of 50 cents and quite a few other coins Thanks to UGLY who started me off with these.
I enjoy the designs especially the older coppers as they have the same obverses as the Aussie coins and are readily available in better condition than our own pennies and halfpennies.
I have no chance whatsoever of getting these in my pocket change so I have to ebay noodle to get what I want.
They compliment my Aussie and US collections, Anyway I just plain like em

I'm originally from CT and I used to see them circulating in the US every so often, so I starting collecting them. And I bought some blue Whitman coin holders, a few years ago, and filled them up as best as I could from circulation.

I'm in search of the 2012 cents and bought some non-magnetic rolls. I'm looking for the magnetic ones now.
