I ask because I see extreme pricing on both varieties on ebay. Sellers claim both are extemely rare and I know that is not true. |

I would say the magnetic is the most rare, but that would depend on where you are. Eastern Canada seems to have more mag than Western.

I go through alot of rolls of pennies and I can't say there are any varieties, with the exception of 2006 no mint mark magnetic and 2006p that I would describe as "rare". 2007 zinc, scarce maybe but not rare by any stretch. |

At first...The 2011 Magnetic Cent was thought to be rare. As of late...the magnetic cents have been turning up by the box full. I know a few people that live in the Quebec area that have found them by the rolls and boxes full. I imagine it will be along the same line as the 2009 release. Ahh well. One less coin that I need to hunt for. I still have not managed to get my hands on a 2007 Non-Magnetic, 2010 Magnetic or the ever elusive 2006P Non magnetic. I guess that is one of the things that keep me roll hunting. I live in Soo Ontario. Got to love living in a border town as I usually get a decent mix of US coinage in my boxes. I'm originally from SE Michigan area. A small town called South Lyon. Kind of in the middle with Ann Arbor to the South, Detroit to the East, Howell/Pickney to the West and Flint to the North off of I-96 between the I-96/US 23 & I-96/I-696 Intersections. Grew up in the South Lyon / Novi area. Edited by cladhunter13

Yes. I get 2 brand new rolls of 2011 magnetic cents from CIBC Vancouver, so the 2011 magnetic cents are not rare any more.

I was just on the other side of the river in Soo, Michigan a couple days ago. Would be cool to stop at a bank there and get a few boxes of pennies.

You have to figure in the fact that the US dollar is lower then the Canadian Loon. You also need to take in to consideration the fact that you have border crossing fees coming in and going home. Otherwise its a option. The Soo Ontario is relatively boring. Not a lot to do here except drink and fight. LOL! If that's your thing then the more power to you. :) A lot of things close here around 6PM on Saturdays and as early as 5PM on Sundays. Kind of the opposite from most places in Michigan. I really miss the 24 hour stores. I need a Meijer fix. LOL! |
