1929
1932
1934
1939
1940 x2
1942
1943 x2
1948
1949
1951
1952
1953
1959 x2 - 1 BU
1961 - BU
1962 x2 - 1 BU
1963
1965 x4
1965 x2 - 1 BU
1967 Centennial x5 - 1 BU

@64 cents a piece I would sell

Is the 1929 a high 9?
Are the 65's pointed 5's?
And 1949 "A" to denticle?

That would maybe change the price.

I think that's a fair price OddCoins. As a buyer, depending on the condition of the non BU pennies I'd pay around $20.00 for this lot, unless of course there are any of the pennies that Bm0ney mentioned.

Apart from the 1934 and earlier, I'm picking the rest of the dates out of bank rolls for $0.01 each, and still finding shiny reds from the 60's and up. So I think that you're coming out good with that price!

$25 for that? Trust me, you will not get a better price, in fact, I would feel guilty charging that much for common coins. If you are selling to a novice collector or young numismatist, tell him they can have the lot for $10 - you'll both feel good about that deal.

Otherwise, take the deal and run!! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6C7oqXewyCE

These are Canadian coins and would not have any mint marks.

Right now, I think that people are willing to pay higher prices to fill holes because they only have 3 weeks left to CRH.

No, it's not ebay, it's Kijiji. I asked for offers because I didn't know what they were worth, and a guy offered '$20-$25.' I'll have a look and see if any of the special ones are in there.

Ya sad, there isn't much time to CRH left. Been trying to get through 2 boxes a week at least. Have made a bunch of albums too. Been selling them on ebay. Would like to try and preserve as many as I can. Also, the extra cash doesn't hurt
