I understand that u.s coins are non magnetic. However, I live in Canada and i’ve definitely seen people use them before when i used to be a cashier. The only picture i found resembling what i’m looking for is here – http://lumberjocks.com/projects/22615 . Canadian coins are magnetic

I live in canada and i have a few 50 cent coins. I have no clue how I got them, but they say 1952-2002 on them and d.g regina on the back, with a small emblem that says ERcanada or something.

The size of the coin is about the coin of a loonie or bigger, silver colored
Can I use it to buy things?

Under the SPP (Security and Exchange Partership), known as the ‘North American Union’, Canada and US and Mexico, by 2010, will give up their currency, and a lot more, in favor of the proposed new currency called the Amero, a deal already signed by Paul Martin, George Bush, and Vincente Fox (former Mexican president).

On the sheet I printed out so I can order stuff from MerchNow, it says all prices are in Us Funds. I’m assuming it’s money, but how would I pay if I’m in Canada? Would I just figure out how much money in canadian currency be in american? Anyone else order stuff through the mail from merchnow, help ?
thanks.

ok , so i live in Canada & i was wondering, the only currency close to Canadian is US dollar, but because they dont have a Canadian currency does that mean they wont ship to Canada?? Also what methods of payment as my mum doesnt have a credit card just s simple bank card. Ive looked on the website & cant find anything.

So anyone out there from Canada ordered from here ??

Thanks in advance

I’m aware that donations made to a U.S. registered charity organization are tax-deductable from U.S.-Income even for a Canadian Citizen. I’m not sure how this is classified though.
Assume one makes monthly donations to a particular registered institution in the states but earns income in Canada and in the Canadian Currency(CND) but also invests in U.S. equities and earns some U.S dollars. Now will the deductions work towards the U.S dollar income earned through equities? or there are other criteria to consider?
Thanks Yeech,
Already gave it a shot, not very detailed.
Hopefully, an accounting consultant can give me with more info.

I have 2 coins. The first is from 1907..on the front is a head, wearing a band that says ‘libertas’ across it. Around the edge it says ‘Confoederatio Helvetica". On the back, in the center, is a #5 and is surrounded by a wreath made of grape vines.
The second is a Canadian coin from 1920. On the front is a head, wearing a crown, along the edges it says "Goergivs V Dei Gra: Rexetind: Imp:". On the back, in the center, it says ‘ 5 cents Canada 1920" and is surrounded by a wreath that has a crown near the top.

If you know anything please answer! I’m curious as to what they might be worth…I’ve had them forever!
Thanks in advance!
