Two boxes of dimes produced 3 silver Rosies (1946, 1950, 1964) and 1 Merc (1920??).

$17.50 in loose halves produced 2 silver halves (1966, 1969)

$30.00 in hand rolled cents produced a good amount of Canadian George VI Cents:

1937(needed for my book), 1938(needed for my book), 1940, 1941(10), 1942(4), 1943(6), 1944,

1945(5), 1946(2), 1947(3), 1949, 1950(3), 1951, as well as 7 Confederation Centennial cents. I don't usally find many of the CC cents.

There were two cent rolls marked "wheat" but there was only one wheat in the roll and the majority of the Canadian George VI cents were in those rolls and a few others.

Two boxes of cents produced 30 wheats. (1930 the oldest, most from the 40's and 50's)

Awesome, congrats!!!! :thumbsup:
 

Nice Canadians, Ive gotten so many that I got a folder to place them all in. Only found one of the Centennial cents though.
 

Neat finds. Are you located near the northern border? Down South I don't see that many Canadian coins.
 

Love the centennial cents. I keep all foreign coins that I find in the boxes. Some canadian but quite a few of Barbados and Bahamas.

I am in Ohio, not too far from the border. These were definitely someones collection of old Canadian coins in old wrappers marked wheats. LOL That part I find pretty funny. I was pleasantly surprised that they were in the rolls, even though the wheats were not.
 

I never keep those centennial cents lol my little one would keep every canadian if I let him. I only keep the pre 60s. Dave
