it just hit $4.4375. Quickly approaching that 3 cents apiece for pre-82 copper cents.Canadian pre-78's are already there. Could hit $4.50 by the end of the day if the dollar trend down continues.

my only problem with selling copper pennies is that the cost of shipping from Alaska is an arm and a leg :(

interesting. I don't see it picking up just yet though simply because the penny is much less practical with the copper value we have presently. let it get around 8 or so a pound and it really might be worth selling.

mvpvlad...I use a melt value site, however copper pennies aren't bringing melt at the moment.
oblaka....I have a room that's overflowing with pennies and I need to clean up....anyway, I'll take $75 profits any time...it's just a sideline from roll searching...now I can buy even more pennies

I had someone ebaYmail me to complain that I couldn't possibly ship a bag of wheats for $12.95. I replied, "yeah, I know, that's why I charge $20 for two bags".
