Canadian Coin Find at Bank

I posted this up on another forum but wanted to share it with you all.

Another trip to the bank last week and to my surprise a teller had $ 27.00 face value of Canadian coins. I received Two Dollar, One Dollar, Quarters, Dimes, Nickels and these cents.

Most of the cents that are in the hard plastic tubes are in really decent shape and are dated 1963. Was this a good year for these cents?

$27 Canadian is less than $21 US. Plus, you can never get rid of those coins unless you are in a border state.

 

Lots of fun in those tubes!

 

Thanks Rick...

 

True, Cant get rid of them because Canada doesn't accept cents any longer. I really do not need 10 rolls of the same date. I will have to offer them up for sale.

thanks for the read Rick. I thought that Canadians had to hand them in and that they were no longer currency but this link suggests otherwise.
