Just got done searching $8 more. The end is near...a box of 100 cent tubes arrived yesterday, and this mess will soon look like an actual collection.  2 Wheat cents: '46-D VF; '58-D VF 5 S-Mint cents: '68-S VF; '69-S EF; '70-S Lg Date EF; '70-S Lg Date AU; '73-S VF 2 2009-P cents: Formative Years in AU55 RB and AU58 RD 4 Canadian cents: '63 VF; '65 Small Beads/Blunt 5 VF; '74 EF; '84 EF 1 Euro 2 cent: 2004 Belgium EF 190 Bronze cents were in this lot. 39 Choice AU keepers turned up, starting with a pair of '74-D One or two more sessions, and the big jar will be empty. Next task: Going through the 1959-64 cents from this lot. 1959-D cents turned up with surprising abundance--how many will be RPMs? We'll soon find out!

Always fun to search that kind of stash. Good luck on the errors and varieties now that you have them separated and good luck with the rolls, those are good dates for varieties, lots of RPM's and some doubled dies too.

Nice finds, Bear906. Make sure you search them for any errors and varieties as well.
Errers and Varietys.

Quote: Nice finds, Bear906. Make sure you search them for any errors and varieties as well. That's the plan. Once I've got them all sorted by date and mint and counted, I'll be looking for errors and varieties. I have an older, inherited accumulation of Wheat cents that's already sorted and counted, but I haven't got around to hunting varieties and errors in that lot, either. As of now, the Wheat and Memorial cents from the big jar are sorted and counted through 1969. Everything else is pre-sorted in five-year lots: 1975-1979, 1980-1984, 1985-1989, and so on through 2019. I've gotten the 1970-74 lot sorted out, but not yet counted.

I'm in Metro Detroit area and I get a significant amount of Canadian cents in CRH.
Canadian 5, 10 and 25 cents I rarely see anymore in change.

 That's mine. Haven't added to it in yrs and have penny's in containers all over the house. One day I'll gather them all together and put them in it. Started it with my wife back in the 90's.
