Being new I've become really confused over the comments made on e-bay about the number of varieties selling for the 2006 one cent. I've listed the following:
- 2006 no logo/mint mark, non-magnetic
- 2006 logo/mint mark, magnetic
- 2006 logo/mint mark, non-magnetic
- 2006P non-magnetic (no mention of a mint mark, etc?)
- 2006P logo/mint mark, magnetic
Is the above accurate? Any add on's, clarification, mistakes. Thanks for your help.

When you see 2006M or ML or RCM or Mint Mark it means all the same thing, it is not maple leaf logo. The list should be: 2006 non-magnetic 2006 magnetic 2006P magnetic 2006M non-magnetic 2006M magnetic the 2nd one being the most $$ |

Does anyone know how many ICCS certified 2006P non-magnetic cents exist?

Bronze is a combination of predominately copper and traces of tin.
Canadian pennies prior to 1997 were 98% copper, 0.5% tin, 1.5% zinc

I'm always disappointed when I come across a 2006. I flip it over to look for the P (trying to fill that hole!), but it's never there. Then I grab a magnet (trying to make some money), but it never sticks.

I am a little confused about these 2006 pennies. I have several 2006P magnetic ones, and they are of the brilliant uncirculated condition when I purchased them some time ago. Are they of any value? I also have difficulty deciphering from Canadian Coin News, which variety to use. Any help would be appreciated. thanks.

Me too... your only ally is VOLUME. Look through tons of cents and stuff will occasionally show up. I've found one single 2006 magnetic and zero 2006P (bought one for like $6.95) in about 5 boxes so far. If it wasn't for the other cool stuff that shows up (wheats, foreign coins, BU 1960s, George V cents, etc.) then I'd be really frustrated by now! |

I'm the same as bibd , I buy 10 - 12 rolls of pennies every time I go to town along with other rolls (once or 2 a week)and have been doing this for 12 years now so the 2006 you have to search a lot of rolls, and still no P and one magnetic.
