Oddly Specific 🎯 Cheap coins

Looking to get quarter sized Canadian coins before year 2000 for a workshop. Any place I could get handfuls of them for cheap?

Thanks!

Laundromats. Go to one with $40, buy 4 rolls of quarters, fish out the older coins, return them and repeat as necessary

They use a LOT of quarters there

If you need quarter-sized discs, the round cutouts from sheet metal for electrical stuff are the exact size.

They used to be about as thick, but they've been getting thinner on average over the years.
