That is what they call (FINDING A HONEY HOLE) It will be a while before you experience that move again

Very nice! I'm going to grab a box of cents this weekend - I hope I'm half as lucky.

i have yet to do a cent box, do you have to ask for a box? or just $25 of pennys...?
also, how long till you guys usually find something good. and how often are you skunked on cents in relatio to halves, nickles, etc..

I never get "skunked" with cents because I hoard copper as well as searching for wheats,,BU 60's and 70's and varieties and errors. I always find SOMETHING I hold onto.

SDcoinguy, I just ask for a box of pennies. If they don't have them, just try somewhere else.
I always find something good to keep whether it be in a box of cents or in a box of nickels. In a box of cents I keep everything that is copper (1981 and prior, plus some 1982s), and in nickels I keep everything 1959 and earlier. I've never searched anything other than cents or nickels.

I guess it depends on what you are into, but by the common criteria, getting skunked on nickels or pennies is pretty much impossible. That's why they're a nice change when you're taking a beating on halves :)

Though I didn't keep track of my ratio......I just finished up 4 boxes of Cents and probably pulled 30-40 Wheaties.....one being a 1917 S....I don't save pre-82 Coppers but....nice haul for me !
I like to do a box of Nickels and halves one week......wait a week......then a few boxes of Cents.....and back and forth like that. It keeps it interesting that way.
I'm thinking of doing some quarters soon.....(I need some P's ! --- 2 for the 50 states and I need ALL of the Territory P's !)
