Ugly, You will find, that since the economy has gone to "POT", that people are digging into thiodse old jars, cans, boxes, etc, to get the change that thety normally just toss in there, when they return from a trip downtown. Doesn't really what the trip was for, it usually ends up with some small change, and into the jat it goes. To give you an idea as to what can be expected, some years ago I did just that, and for a year, didn't touch it. then I checked to see what was there. I found $80.00 in quarters, alone, plus all the smaller change. It does add up, and with the current situation, it is even more apt to be used. Checking cents by the roll. I found in four boxes that I bought, 23 rolls of 197X cents, 8 rolls of 196X cents, a dozen wheat cents, and 7 Canadian cents. There was also a coin from The Bahamas. Usually, I'll be lucky to find a dozen of the '60's, or '70's in a box, and very few wheats. I do find CAN. cents often.
BTW, anyone geard from DVCollector, lately? He liked the Provincial coins, and I hava a question about them, for him, if he id "lurking"
