There are lots that are magnetic. I guess the rare one is the 2006 magnetic, with no logo and no "P".

When Iam CRH I touch every coin to a magnet just in case something is that shouldn't be or visa-versa. You never know.

Well, finished the quick and dirty search through the 50 lbs of pennies.

Nothing extremely valuable, but did find:
(1) 1979 double "79" variety
(3) 1979 double "979" varieties
(2) Nice and shiny 1962 "Hanging 2 varieties
(1) 1981 clipped planchet
(13) Pre-1960's
(6) US Wheats - 1918,42D,45,49S,55D,57 (nothing in a spectacular grade but I am always happy when finding wheats.

Tons of pre-1970's, lots in great grades, about 5lbs of US cents, which I will start looking for errors soon!

A few pounds of 2006's, but no valuable finds...but I'm keeping them aside just in case!

Nothing too thrilling, but it kept me interested!

At one point I was really fired up to go through some pennies... had a whole lot of fun with it too... for awhile
Life has gotten a little busy around here with my little guy and soon to have another little girl too... I'm going to enjoy going through the 15-20 boxes of pennies later when my two little ones can do it with me... crazy to say this but I literally just dumped them all back into boxes after going through half of them already once...

Neat finds. I love searching bags because everything just gets dumped in without anyone looking at it. We have a coin roll hunting forum with a dedicated Canadian finds thread if you get anymore pennies. Also just FYI for everyone. The thread somehow morphed from $50 in pennies to 50lbs of pennies but $50 is actually about 30lbs +/-.

50lbs or 30lbs...I'm not sure what I'm going to do with them yet... Someone will probably find a new variety and I will go through them all again! LOL..
