Canadian Coin and Currency

I don’t lump Canadian money into my “foreign” collection for a couple of reasons. Canada and the U.S. share a common monetary system (though not an even trade), and Canadian coins are found so often here in the U.S., that the money hardly seems “foreign”. Also, because it is so common here, I have so much of it that Canadian money deserves its own binder on my shelf. Unfortunately, what my Canadian collection has in size, it lacks in interesting content. The most notable pieces are a couple of large cents that my grandmother gave to me.
