What is 2 toonies plus 1 loonie plus 6 dimes plus 2 nickels plus 5 dimes plus 12 pennies?

A toonie is $2.00

A loonie is $1.00

6 dimes = 6*10 cents = 60 cents

2 nickels = 2*5 cents = 10 cents

12 pennies = 12 cents (even though pennies were discontinued in 2012)

Adding these amounts gives a total of $3.82

Why it is called toonie?

A twoonie is called a twoonie because it's a tip-off from the loonie. The Canadian loonie is one dollar, so the two-dollar coin thus became so-named as the twoonie.

What type of metal were Canadian nickels made of before 1982?

With some exceptions, Canadian nickels minted from 1922 to 1981 were struck in 99.9% pure nickel, with the rest being simply trace impurities.

The exceptions were:

  • 1942-1943: tombac, a copper/zinc alloy that was adopted because nickel was needed for the war effort
  • 1944-45 and 1951-54: chrome-plated steel

Is a copper penny of 1943 higher value than a penny of 2010 or a lower value?

HIGHER!!! It is worth $150,000!!!!

CorrectionThe above response refers to an AMERICAN copper penny dated 1943. All Canadian cents dated 1943 were made of copper, while 2010 cents are copper-plated steel. 1943 Canadian cents are worth around 50 cents to a dollar depending on condition, so they're certainly worth more than 2010 cents but not a huge amount.

To explain the value of a 1943 AMERICAN copper cent, the US Mint switched to zinc-plated steel that year because copper was needed for making ammunition. A few copper blanks left over from 1942 were accidentally mixed in and were struck with the 1943 date. These coins are very rare and can sell for the amount quoted above.
