One more thing: you probably will get around $10 for the 1968 2c and $5 for the 1968 1c. Seeing as you found 9 and 7 you are probably leading the fundraising at the school. This is the best fundraising activity I have ever heard of for school kids. Well done.

Anyways, we were unable to make full sets. Even though we found 9 1968 2c pieces we only had 5 1970 and 4 1969.
How many sets are you trying to assemble? What coins you are missing, and how many do you need?

I might have some spares I can donate to the fundraising venture.

Nancy, you are delightful!
We had no goals with the cooper sets so what we ended up with is fine. All the remaining coins beyond the sets we could actually make were just bagged up - so, will thank you for the offer, but we can sell the sets + 1968 singles. - Saves you the hassle of finding the right dates, me the hassle of going back through the coppers to find the right dates and we're still making $$ (hopefully).

The coopers were just to break up the monotony of hunting through 5 cent pieces. - An enjoyable departure as the kids for the most part hadn't ever seen a 1 or 2 cent piece.
(I'm 24 and my memory of them is finding them in Nan and Pop's backyard - and it didn't click to me that these kids would never had seen them before).
