Help identifying odd Canadian coin and ANOTHER Wheatie for me!

[partenr]

Yesterday's stuff: My third Wheatie...that's soooo weird that I just seem to find them automatically now after having gone MONTHS before I found one.

Hey, I thought the little pice of aluminum that says "fight litter" with a little wagging finger was a funny find. I was able to read that tiny print when it was just coming into view in the hole.

The Canadian coin...a penny obviously...isn't the "normal" penny and I can't seem to find it on the web. I find the pic of Elizabeth II on many coins, but not the reverse image. Ideas?

Oh...and the Zippo top. It seems to have a very intricate engraving of a tree trunk on it. It's pretty amazing looking. I wish the entire lighter would have stayed with it's partner the lid.

Happy hunting to you all!!

Hey partnr
I found one of those last summer dated 1979. But instead of saying one
penny, it says new penny. It's a little larger than a us or canadian.

When England first went metric, that was the penny that came out..... I still remember them very clearly. (I lived there till 1973, 13 yrs old)......

God bless
