I've been saving copper because it means less to bring back and fill up the machine's bags with! haha
I need to look into selling eventually though

speaking of nothing, I actually went through a box of pennies last night with 0 wheats. First time that has happened.
I opened the first roll and I knew I was in trouble. There was no pre 82 in the roll at all. It turns out that this box was also a copper hoarders dump. 2nd time I got one like this. no copper, and nasty coins.
Whoever dumped these must have made a pretty serious size dump to fill my whole box with post 82.... maybe 1 roll of copper in the whole box. booooo!
Well its dumped now, not into my own stream, so hopefully they go back to where they came from :-)

One box yielded 23 wheats, 11 canadian. Just under 25% copper, I wonder how long it will be until it is impossible to find copper in circulation!

After almost a year, I got my 11th 1999 WAM. In the same box were a '98 and 2000 WAM as well.

I have never found a WAM, and it is not from the lack of trying.
