Grabbed 20 rolls of nickels and was blown away as I opened the fifth and seventh rolls.
Here's a first for me, I found all these in just 2 rolls.
8-1938
10-1939
10-tombacs (9-1943 & 1-1942)
10-1965 BU 5-MS++
10-1960 BU 1 with one really Bald Beaver
1-1941 1-1945 1-1950 1-1951 1-1952 1-1957
I have no choice but to return to that bank tomorrow and try again.

CCF up and working again, yahoo, good work staff..
To find these in circulation rolls was pretty amazing. I went back to the bank yesterday, asked for 20 rolls, the teller gave them to me and I put them in my bag and went home, opened them and they are all USA. Its going to take a while to search these, already found some from the 40s and 50s. I rarely post what I find unless its cool or unusual. Thanks.

That is an amazing find! I've never found any tombacs, and you got 10!

At work, I received my first John A. MacDonald toonie. Also, I got a 2008 in really nice condition. It may even be a proof but I'm not sure.
When my till needed more change, I got a CWR of nickels instead of the usual machine wrapped. I think the newest one was from 1990. Picked up a 1957 and a couple of other nice ones from the '80s to upgrade my collection.

One of the other employees handed out a $5 no security strip I was saving. She insisted that she must hand out the older ones right away. I also thought I saw an MS 2006 lucky loonie, but it became really busy and it was definitely gone later.

So I go to A and W for breaky and spy a tip jar with some pennies and ask to buy them and the nice lady says of course I can by her pennies as she doesn't want them. I am a coin collector I say and put 1.20$ into her tip jar for 90 US/ CND pennies. As I am eating she comes over and says that I can have a hand full of foreign coins they have received no charge, I don't collect foreign but thank her and accept. Get home and nothing special about the pennies. Then look in the "foreign" coin pile and find this little prize....

I suppose 1967 was 48 years ago, some youngsters (sound pretty old now don't I) may not be familiar with the reverse designs. But Canada and 10 Cents being on the coin is a pretty big give away. Great score, the Tims and A&W are good to you.

Yes I'm lucky in that mall, it is a good example for every one to at least ask for what you see, you may get it. Imagine if I said I didn't want the foreign coin. I also have a new connection.

After running around shopping today , checked my pocket change when I got home and found this 2003W loon. Little scratched up but my first W mint mark circulation find. I thought it looked special before I looked at the obverse.

Nice find on the 2003W. I also have one, but it was because I thought the very yellow loonie in my friend's change looks a little odd. So I didn't actually get it in my change.
