I have some Canadians coins I've either gotten in change or found in rolls. It's hard to use these coins in the states so before I toss these or give them away I was wondering if there is anything I should look for. These are the coins I have:

one cent
1963
1970
1974
1979
1981
1987
1990
1867-1992
1993
1994
1997
2001
2006

five cents
1964
1985
1987
1989
1998
2001

ten cents
1973
1999

I'd appreciate any help.

The 1970 10 cent coin is a HTF coin. I know there are members here on this forum who are trying to find one. The 63 is silver.

I just noticed you have two 10 cent columns. I guess the first should have said one cent which would make my original reply incorrect.

They are all common dates. I assume that even though the Canadian dollar is worth more than US, Canadian coins are still not welcome when it comes to spending them.

Thanks for pointing out that error! What is HTF on a Canadian ten cent. I know I don't have that but you got me curious.

I'm guessing HTF means "Hard To Find"?

Check the 1964 nickel for an extra water line.

Odds are seriously against you, but never hurts to look!

As for the 1970, the dime is very hard to find in circulation, with around 5-6 million minted. The 1970 cent isn't anywhere near as scarce, though. :(

Thanks Topher. IF I find it I'll post it here.
Canadian coins not welcomed at all and cashiers give nasty looks when I try to slip a Canadian coin by. So I always lose cents when I find any in rolls. Once I took all Canadian change I found in a bunch of rolls and returned it to the bank. I was reembursed in U.S. money. Over $1.00. I've never had the guts to do it again though.
I was very upset that day because I was fed up with not getting fair exchange from banks.

It's worth more than face value at the moment. Use that in your argument with the bank! LOL
