Yes, Canadian Coins are generally not accepted for use in the United States. While some businesses near the Canadian border may accept them, they are not considered legal tender in the US. It is recommended to exchange Canadian coins for US currency before traveling to the US.

But the coins that aren't magnetic are simply spent like US coins as they have the same diameter and roughly the same purchasing power.
