i usually pull about $4.50 in coppers. I average about 12-15 wheats. i'll probably put my coppers up on craigslist. I sold 100 rolls for $75.00 Yeah, I realize the margin is terrible, but I wasn't going to do anything else with them anyways. I may try putting a box or two of coppers on ebay. maybe i'll have better luck.

That's what we refer to as PMD "Post Mint Damage".

Kind of mixed on saving copper but I do enjoy it for now. A $100 box of coppers sold on ebay this weekend for $140 so there is a slight premium. who knows what the future holds. My real enjoy comes from finding wheats and really nice BUs of most dates.

WOW, looks like I am not the only one who is finding searching hard right now. Nothing new to speak of here. Did find the oldest Canada cent ever a few minutes ago. Here it is:   Maybe this is this the beginning of better things. Jim

I had 15 wheats last night from an NF String and sons box. The best one was a 1930. I also had a 1945 Canadian and 2 2010's.

One thing I love about being in the Seattle area is all the banks carry Canadian, but no Americans ever buy it. I bought $200 face Canadian the other day (for my wife), mixed denominations. Found 4 silver dimes, 2 silver halves, 20 or so King George cents and 2 of the above pictured cents. And my wife filled like 5 holes in her quarter type set. All the roles were from random places... Some were stamped "St Mary Magdalene Parish" I was very excited about those.

I'm jealous. I live about 9 miles from Canada, and we get Canadian coins in change, but I can't buy Canadian change at the bank. I'd love to get a box of Canadian cents, as that's mainly what I collect.
At least I trade my Canadian change for rolls of Canadian cents when friends come to visit from Canada.
