Seems I find a lot of Canadian Pennies while roll hunting. I almost am disappointed if I don't find one. Has anyone else noticed this phenomenon?  |

I bought the Whitman Canadian Cents folders and am trying to fill them with Canadian cents that show up in my rolls of Lincoln cents.

I usually get 20 rolls when I go to my bank and sometimes I get at least one a roll and other times I get none. Recently found a 1956 in really nice condition.

I too have collected a number of Canadians while searching cents. I found one with George VI on it the other day. Aristarchus, where did you buy that folder? I've thought of doing that myself, but haven't seen one.

Aristarchus, where did you buy that folder? I picked them up on ebay: search for "Canadian Folder Small Cents" and they are in two folders and have 115 slots from 1920 to 2012. I have found 83 different coins so far, and have 32 slots still to fill! (Hey, it's my 1,000 post on coincommunity!) |

I did the same when I was searching boxes back a couple of years ago. I ended up making a deal with a YN from Canada to trade for my remaining holes. Haven't seen him around here in quite a long time, but enjoy looking at the folder whenever I get a chance .. it's burried deep now, so not often

Well I've already committed to saving these Canadians. The oldest I've run across was 1942 however got a 1947 in just a little less than VF. Think will do like aristarchus123 and just book them. Like Mark1959 at least one a roll and sometimes none. Usually when I find one Canadian a Wheat penny is somewhere near. This week I got (4) Canadians and (1) 1955 wheat in 3 rolls. yeah the 1955 was not a Double  |

I went the other way. A few years ago I bought a couple hundred dollars of Canadian pennies (4 $50 boxes) and after going through them I found a bunch of American pennies. Not as many as I thought I would since they came from the Niagara area though. I don't have the actual numbers handy but there were 30 or 40 as I recall.

Well I usually find them but I look forward to finding them as I'm trying to complete my Canadian Penny Collection!
