On the other hand, if you're looking for anything of value, check if any of the coins are silver. Looks like some of them are. Check for key date Canadian/Australian pennies too.

Spott Valued Member United States 263 Posts	Posted 05/19/2014 9:07 pm I sent a message on behalf of the kids I send coins to, but it looks like I'm not a fast enough typist. It is very nice of you to share these coins. I figure the more kids who get interested in collecting, the more likely my collection will be enjoyed by someone someday when I am old (instead of my heirs just wondering if it has financial value)!

AgCoinAu Pillar of the Community Canada 3049 Posts	Posted 05/19/2014 9:15 pm I like the idea of giving them to kids at a CCF stand.... I think that's a great idea! If that doesn't pan out.. I have been contemplating putting up a table here in Winnipeg at a small bourse we have here once a month.. if nobody else takes 'em... I will be happy to pay the shipping to my address on the promise that they will be given out to kids... Report this Post to the Staff
