Last night's coins produced some decent variety.

2,000 quarters turned up four Canadians.

3,000 dimes yielded two silver Rosies (1957, 1962), three Canadians and two US pennies.

2,000 nickels produced four Canadians (3 Ni). One of the Canadians is now the oldest one I've found in a roll, a 1935, 3.9 million were minted. I was wondering when a George V nickel would turn up for me.



7,500 pennies had thirty-one Wheats, forty-five Canadians, three Euro 1¢ (3 x 2002, Italy), one Euro 2¢ (1999, Italy), one French 10 centimes (1963), one UK penny (1973), one Panama 1¢ and two US dimes. The Wheats were:

1919, 1927, 1941(4), 1944(3), 1945D, 1945S, 1946, 1947, 1948, 1949, 1950(2), 1950S, 1951, 1954S, 1956D(4), 1957(4), 1957D, 1958(2), 1958D





Found: 1 nickel (at work), 1 dime (at Stop & Shop), 1 foreign coin (a Canadian quarter at Stop & Shop)
