Wow, lots of canadian coins. Out of about 150 so far in pennies, I have only found about 15 or so. Probably because NY is close to CA than Nevada!
Keep Looking

Great finds, Tim!

Yeah, here in Vegas if you get one or two Canadian pennies in $10 worth it's an event. And I've yet to find a Canadian nickel older than 1978.

Today's pre-1960 finds in $35/nickels were sparse -

1941
1948S (#10 of the 10 lowest mintages, keeper!)
1953D
1959D

1995 Canadian

Great job! You really do get a lot of canadian coins... I've never gotten any indian coins yet...

being close to the border here canadian coins are interchangable with american. Other than they dont work in vending machines. most people only worry about exchange rates on paper.
