I finally found a Canadian coin with King Charles on heads.

You can also tell by the sound it makes if you bounce it off a hard surface like a marble or granite countertop in the kitchen. My Granddad hoarded a couple of buckets worth of silver dimes and quarters when Canada switched over to nickel. A coin guy told me that the ones that are worn out and the letters on the coin faded are not worth much in collectors value.

The sound they make has been mentioned already, thanks.

The sound a bucket of silver coins make is Ka-Ching.

Yes. I stated that in the last line of my post.

Ah, I missed that.

Are they going to get rid of the ones with the Queen on it?

They never have before, they just stop making them till they disappear. Gonna miss Freddie Mercury on me coins.

That's just common cents.

I saw a 2024 Canadian coin for the first time today.

I saw a 2025 Canadian coin for the first time today, (twonie, with the standard polar bear obverse). The heads side is considered to be the front of a coin, not the back.
