mberteig Valued Member Canada 54 Posts	Posted 05/24/2012 8:21 pm Just a couple days ago I found my new oldest: a 1916 Wheat cent and a 1920 Wheat cent. CRH'ing for Canadian pennies. By far, I have found more old pennies from the United States than from Canada in my canadian penny boxes. Report this Post to the Staff
CanadianCollector Valued Member Canada 306 Posts	Posted 07/13/2012 11:14 am Here is my oldest find. I got this out of the till at work. My next oldest is a 1940 canadian penny. I also pulled a 1939 penny out of my front yard with my metal detector.(I don't think that counts as circulation as it had likely been there for years) Report this Post to the Staff

I hope by that you mean coins you plan on selling in order to take a trip and not a jar that you intend on cashing in at the bank.......as a 1912 Canadian Nickel was made of silver and NOT Nickel.
