1968 Canadian Dollars - how do I get rid of these?

zeebob

So I found two 1968 Canadian dollars in what appears to be some sort of mint packaging. The packaging is a sealed plastic envelope. The two dollars occupy different compartments in the same envelope.

Krause says these are essentially worthless.

What to I do with low dollar coins. Gang them together into a single lot and put them on eBay? Just toss them in a soccer field? I like coins but the chaff stacking up.

I use them as waitress trips when I go to the casino in Niagara Falls, Ontario.

Buy smoething from a Canadian and use them as part payment.

Ha ! I may try using devalued Mexican coins at the local "Taco Bell" drive through

You might want to do a little research on the web to see if there's anything regarding a variety of these dollars. I seem to remember there being something different about the island or waterlines on some 1968 coins that made them worth more.

We talked about the varieties and such in a thread I posted a few weeks ago about 1968 Canadian Dollar Strips... here is the link to the thread:

You could send them to me, I've got over 100 Canadian coins thanks to having a friend in Canada who mails me his pocket change, but NO dollar coins whatsoever!

Put them on eBay with the words, "RARE!!! L@@K!!! NO RESERVE!!!", and start the bidding at 0.99 with $5 Shipping and Handling.

I just can't resist bidding on those sort of auctions.

ASUtodd, thank you. Your thread was helpful. Apparently I have two coins out of a five dollar strip. Where the other 3 are, I haven't a clue.
