    Is this a guessing game? A hint would help. You might want to tell us how many pennies are in the bag.

    really dont know how many are in it. they are canada 1963 one pieces,, certainly would make a good game at guessing the number in the bag. lol and win a prize. i would like to know that my self. i really dont know if i should break it open or keep it closed. what would have more value is the question..

    according to the bag weight im thinking about 2000 cents in it , rough calculation.

    If you haven't opened it, how do you know they're all 1963 Canada one cent pieces? ;)

    Is the bag sealed? Is there any marking on it?

    yes its sealed it says 63 on it,, theres a small hold in the bag and you can move the coins and see the date. the lead bag clamp has canadian on it.the guy i got them off of,said its an original bag from the bank 1963

    on the other hand maybe theres other dates, or even a scattered error coin or other treasure in it lol.. thats why im asking if theres no true value for that year maybe ill open it and hope for the best

    Might be 1 or 2 error coins in it worth more than the whole bag of cents...

    I would keep that baby closed. A lot of US cent bags carry a significant premium in closed bags. I know nothing about the Canadian coin market but I would assume with Canada stopping the production of cents that the bag will have some premium. If you want to sell it, send me a PM :)
