10 (ten) Canadians! I don't find that many in two full boxes of cents. And this roll from a 10-pack I took off a teller while picking up halves (they were weighing her drawer down).

One single roll yielded the following Canadians:

1956
1961
1963
1964
1867-1967 Centennial
1974
1867-1992 125 year piece
1993
2006
2010

I seriously need a Canadian Cent album after adding these to my current gathering. Problem is the LCS is slowing down because the owner has health issues, and his stock isn't what it used to be. Probably have to go looking on the net for one now. :icon_scratch:

I average 30-40 per box of pennies I go through. I have a 64 oz bottle that's almost filled with just Canadian cents. I also have filled a Canadian coin book from current to as old as early 40's. only have a couple holes left to fill.

I just finished an entire box I picked up from another branch (which is closing later this month, BTW) and only found 6 Canadians total out of the 50 rolls. Hotrod is right, 2-3 per box in AZ is typical. To find 10 in one roll is unheard of, especially the centennial and the 125 year piece. I've never seen one of the latter, truth be told, and haven't seen a centennial cent in decades.
