The non copper (zinc I think) ones will get caught in the magnet of the coin counter. Look for anything before 1960, thats what I keep. I would definetly go through these before exchanging them.
Quote:Or you could look at the datess and see if you can find anything older than 1900 which should have some interesting value
I doubt very much that you will find any as the size of the 1858 to 1920 cent was LARGE. I also roll search here in Canada and very often get US cent rolls as people dump them when our dollar is at par or higher.I got as many as 20 rolls in a box.I keep them all as I spend time in the USA in the winter.Hard to trade rolls as teh postal rate is a killer.
If you're going to search them check this website for the valuable dates/varieties http://www.coinsandcanada.com/coins-prices.php There are a number of valuable ones in the 20's and a couple of valuable varieties of 1948 & 1949. Nothing much newer than that unless in great condition (except for the 1955 NSF but odds are hugely against you finding one)
