RECYCLING MAKES CENTS
The Royal Canadian Mint is committed to recycling coins. Every coin put back into circulation is one less to produce, which makes recycling an efficient, cost-effective and environmentally friendly way to provide change to the marketplace.
Nickels, dimes, quarters, loonies and toonies. Coins add up fast, yet often lie around in jars and drawers. Instead of leaving your hidden treasure to collect dust, why not recycle your spare change? Every coin recycled is one that doesn't have to be produced – which helps to preserve the environment and reduces emissions caused by smelting and mining.
You'll be amazed at how quickly your spare change adds up to something big!
Take a look in your pockets, your piggy bank and your purse – and turn this small change into found money. Coin recycling is catching on throughout Canada. Keep your eyes open and change ready for a coin recycling kiosk near you!
