I found a 1968 QEII penny in change last week. Not much to brag about as it was very dirty

Yes but just slightly, my phone picture doesn't do it justice and the coin is well circulated. Its nice when all four digits of the date are involved.

A hole filler for me. I'm sad about the coin roller damage on the reverse, but I don't think I'll ever find a nicer one in circulation.

I don't have a picture but I also got a 1958 penny, an upgrade to my set.

Here are a few finds from the last two weeks at work.

Barbados 2001 10 cents and Helvetica 1980 1 Franc:

I received these two quarters from the same customer:

Limited mintage 2006 Churchill pixie ear:
(Edit: I thought this was the rare variety with 31,636 produced. Pixie ear has a mintage of 5 million but this is the second one I've seen.)

VF Birds $5:

As a couple were rummaging through the wife's purse, I noticed the white edge of a bill and then caught a glimpse of the blue. I told them I collect older banknotes and coins and asked to exchange for a newer bill, to which he awkwardly agreed.

Shows it never hurts to ask, to some a bill is a bill. Paper bills are harder to find all the time.

This 1966 SD is my recent find, and I literally mean I found what I had misplaced. I found it unincased in the envelope containing my 1966 Uncirculated Set. At some point in time, 15-20 years ago when life was much more hectic I think I must have been comparing the beads to the SD in the set and accidentally left it in the envelope. I hadn't looked at these sets ever since then until last month, when I noticed the envelope seemed heavy after I took out the set to put in a display page.

It's brown toned with an aura of blue highlights. Perhaps the blue came from contact with the inside of the brown Uncirculated Set envelope.

I call it "Canoeing by Moonlight". It's very tough to photograph and is far more attractive to the eye, but this is a try:

Unfortunately, the obverse is "Queen with Chicken Pox".

I got a 1964 nickel in change yesterday. It's worn and scratched up but it is a break from all the plated white coins.

Since I only had $20 bills and $1 bills and the cashier won't take the $1 bills for my $5 purchase I ended up getting a bunch of loonies. A hole filler or two for me but nothing really special.

Found this 1968 silver dime in my coin jar hoard today.
Not the prettiest but this is the first 1968 silver I've found in my change.

Scanned it beside a 1971 in about the same condition (minus the dirt) for comparison, and of course it passed the magnet test.

I got a very nice cartwheel lustre-y John A Macdonald toonie on the 30th of April. After I had packed all my coins away. It came with me here in my pocket.
