I got bored with Halves after doing 7 crap boxes in a row ( though Box 8 produced 3 40%s ) and bought $50 in pennies finding 12 wheats the oldest 1936. The unusual finds were two Canadian cents 1943 and 1946. I've never found Canadian cents this old in pennies. The 1981 and earlier memorials totaled 1400 or so. Also $115 in cwr dimes produced a 1948 and 1964

Nice finds with the '43 and '46 Canadian cents. The oldest Canadian cents I've found are from 1961 and 1963, with most, oddly, dating from the 1980s.

Nice finds
I usually find one or two george VI per box, but then again I usually get 20-30 canadian per box so that might be why.

I should also mention that I've only found one king george V, (a 1920) which is weird, I also barely ever find canadians in other denominations

I find a lot of canadian pennies and nickels when roll searching, a lot of older ones to. And I always get canadian quarters back in my change also, I'm guessing its because I'm located in minnesota.

I was just going through all my finds yesterday and found that I have two king George VI. At the time I just threw them with the rest of my foreign jar but once I knew what they were I threw them in my wheatback jar.

I found my first King george V just the other day. I put it in the "keep" pile, but I havent looked at it too hard yet.
I think it was a 1936.. maybe.

I have a few King George VI also. Including a 1943? dime.
