Value of 1933ish-1952 Canadian pennies.

Was wondering if anyone knew the value of those later king George cents. 33-52 I believe.
Have close to 1000 of them I believe. Are they equivalent to our wheat cents?
Also have 500 or so of the 67 birdy pennies but don't think they have any real value above copper.
Thanks

King George VI cents were minted from 1937-1952.

The 1967 cents with the dove on them had over 345 million minted. For a country that has a population about 1/10 of that of the U.S. that is a LOT of pennies.

I don't know enough about the real market for either of these and how easy they are to sell. I'll defer to someone from up north or a subject matter expert here in the U.S.

Here is a link from Numista that may have some helpful info:

Good luck.
