I went to a TD bank today, and they gave me a Canadian 2012 penny in ms condition in a 2 x 2 holder....... Wondering if thus has happened to anybody else out there?

I asked at my Royal Bank branch yesterday if they had any rolls and they said they hadn't had 2012 cents for months. Nice find.

I was able to pick up a box of 2012 pennies from my bank yesterday. It seems odd that they gave you one in a 2x2.

My last 2 weeks of penny orders have been mint rolls of 2011 & 2012 rolls. Not very happy. This was crunch time for older ones.

Apart from that. No freebies from my bank.

I have to agree With Coin Chick.Too many while roll searching.I started to keep a few of the nice ones(no finger marks,scratches,etc.)But found myself questioning."What's the point ?" So back to the bank they went.At the moment Ajax and Beaverton Ontario is flooded with 2012's

I didn't get my first mint box until around sept. it would have been nice in the spring when the hype was there. And the first few boxes were nice to keep.... I now have 20 boxes :(((

Negative. No 2012 pennies in NFLD yet outside private imported ones. I normally avoid steel slugs, but I want a few 2012 Pennies for my niece and nephew, plus one of each type for me.

@ coin chick, I sold about 10 boxes in December for $150 each box. After ebay and paypal, and shipping I was making about $80-$90 profit on each box.
