Aside from the silver coins, is there anything to look for? Any special coins like the big-bust 73 Quarter?

I have a lot of these coins. I plan on just rolling them up and dumping them at the bank after searching for possible varieties. Is there any value in keeping these? Would it be better to just trade them to a coin collector that would appreciate them? Or does no one really collect these?

I do know that these coins are being melted by the ARP program.

I'm mainly into NCLT, so help!

IMO... I would dump them....you search them for silver... if you're going as far as to look for varieties and errors then you're probably giving them a really good look....

I don't think there would be any value in the metal content if it's not silver

I'm not very experienced when it comes to Canadian coins, but isn't the 1991 quarter not only rare but nickel as well?

Check the 10c with a magnet, sometimes you can find off-metal 10c in the 1970s, which are struck on Cu-Ni blanks intended for the Barbados.
