I don't get all the people that say that they take up space.

You roll them, you knock the drywall off a wall, and they fit nicely between the studs. Then you put the drywall back up, or maybe a hinged wall if you want to access your coins.

I figure one stud section could easily hold half a ton of coins.

*might want to do this in the basement, or ground floor where there is concrete under it*

Libertad!!!

Both the US Mercury dime and the Liberty Walking half-dollar were circulating coins when I was a lad, here (south of our border)?

In answer to Willy 13's question , I find the percentage is anywhere between 35% t0 55% per box, of course sometimes you get lucky and pull a full roll of 32's out of a box. I search about 2 boxes a week and hoard all the copper I find,I now have well over 125,000 cu cents,plus some great collectibles. 154 pennies avge per pound.
