I have $400 face value in bags of $50 each to sell. My limit is the size of my safe, and I'm about maxed right now. Time to unload them.

I roll coins that I get in change. In my bulk coins: I have 1 roll of LWC, 14 rolls of copper LMC, and 69 rolls of zincolns. |

About 800lbs, which comes to about 115,000 coppers, all unrolled. And none of them are searched for errors/varieties.
I started hoarding them since 2009 specifically for their copper value and nothing else.
No max target yet.
52Raymo... a full 5-gallon pail weighs about 210 lbs, which is approx 30K coppers.

I have about 35,000 copper Lincolns and 2500 wheaties. The wife mocks me so. She calls them "Daddy's Mindless Pennies".

Bout 800 pounds. One "quest" I have in roll hunting is to put together one full roll of each year (including all mints) of BU or near BU coins 1959 to date. This includes all varieties of 1982 cents and 2009 cents. Am about 2/3 done! :-) have just about all zinc cents done. Certain 60s dates seem to be the real stinkers.

I am not sure how many I currently have but there are a few old butter containers full and about $75 rolled. Keep pulling them from pocket change but I do not roll hunt for them yet at this point.

I have about 30K all rolled and boxed up . Took a break from searching about 7 months ago I was getting about 22 to 25 percent coppers per box then got curious today too see if that percentage was still about the same . So I got a box today and sure enough the 22 to 25 percent coppers are still out there . I kinda thought it might be a little lower then that now . But that's the same percentage I was getting when I started searching over too years ago . Is anyone else seeing about the same percentage or seeing it dropping ?
