Today I sat down at the kitchen table to go through my 10 rolls of pennies. Its pouring rain outside & I got a nice hot cup of tea. Nothing good on TV for 20 minutes or so. Working my way to the 6 or 7th roll I get 42 Canadian centennial pennies.  You know, the ones with the rock dove. Wow, almost a full roll of them. Then I realize that all the pennies in this roll were copper - another first for me!!
This weekend has been pretty good coin roll wise!
Happy hunting all!!

| I've got only one with the dove, what's it worth? Is it like the US "drumer" quarters? |
As far as I know, it is stated "In God We Trust" on the US dollar. How can I trust this currency if I do not believe in God?
Possession is nine-tenths of the law.
When I give my two cents, they're always copper! |

| The doves are worth a small premium. Depending on how many you have and who you find to buy them. |

| They're beautiful coins. I wish mine was in better condition. I still keep the US bicentennial "drummer" quarters, just because they're different. I know they don't have any added value now, but over time maybe they will, who know? There were so many minted and people hoard them, so probably not. |

Nice score Bart!
I really think the Canuk-A-Dove Cent is a beautiful coin.
They will be worth more the longer you keep them.
I keep mine seperate from my other Canuk-A-Cents. |
There's profit if you melt things!!

| I have a few of those. More than I thought I'd find in FL. |
Are you throwing that out? |

Hi Bart
I got 3 boxes of pennies at WF and found lots of Canadian pennies also. Never saw so many Canadians and Coppers since I started sorting. I was thrilled to say the least. Wish I could get more boxes like that. Too far to drive back and get more the day I got the 3 boxes. |
