I recently took to ebay to fill out some of the pennies I was still missing after years of roll searching. I now have pennies from every year minted except 1858, 1881, and 1891. I've also been trying to get as many of the different varieties as I can, but I still need many of the main Vickie varieties.

where do you get the rolls if you are in the US?

I believe Canadian Pennies come out of US rolls of pennies... most probably by mistake. I even found two when I was in the States. One a 1999 1p, and a 1974 1p from my change there.

Maybe that is why they just laugh when I go to my bank and ask for a roll of Canadian Large Cents!

I have acquired these by trading, buying and some were straight out gifts from very generous forum members.

I'll be better off noting the ones I am missing....
Large Cents - 1858, 1887, 1891, 1892, 1894, 1895, 1897, 1898 H, 1900
Small cents - 80,81,90,91,93,96,98,99,01,02 Guess I was so focused on the older cents I didn't quite keep up on the recent ones!!
The 1923 cent has the second lowest mintage next to the 1925 at just over 1 million!!

Talk about roll searching, my neighbour was going to the bank one day with a fruit basket full of rolls. There was $130 worth he got from his grandfather. Guess who bought them? Pennies in MS from the 40's,50's and 60's,with a few good nickels in the 50's and half the dimes and quarters are silver. It really fills those pages up fast.

All my small cents have come from searching US rolls. I have all the George VI's through Elizabeth to 2008! All I really need are the George V's. Only found four of them....
