What's the most common coin in your jar?

[forestdale]

it takes me back seeing the amounts of loose change you are finding. Here in the great Commonwaelth of Australia we did away with 1 and 2 cent coins years ago - 5 cents is our smallest denomination now. We don't have $1 and $2 dollar notes anymore - they were replaced by gold coins so when you gather a few of them for a change jar they really make a difference.

For us it seems to be quarters (25¢).

For us...pennies (one cent coins)

~pennies

Were the same as you in Canada, Rhonda. We no longer have$1 or $2 notes. We now have coins. The $1 one is called a loonie and the $2 is called a toonie!!!! Like you, it really adds up in the change jar.
