My credit union offers <2% on savings yet charges 15% to count loose change, and doesn't accept rolled coins, because they are of "unknown...
In the middle 50's I was encouraged by some fellow workers to look for 1938-D and 1950-D nickels. I found a couple of 38 coins, but the elusive...

Like many Canadian coins, it is a very good looking one, but does it have increased value?
But, don't you wish you owned some of them, even one?
