mikem2608 New Member United States 15 Posts	Posted 01/26/2012 11:51 am I just started and have been getting a box here and there. Now I'm going to be looking to get much more, hence the initial post. I'm doing it for the copper. I've been pulling out the wheats as I've been doing it by hand, but I figure with the machine I'll just let it sort the copper and leave it at that. I have found in about 9 boxes so far (3) in the teens and (1) 1908 Indian Head. Report this Post to the Staff

tuleja Valued Member United States 71 Posts	Posted 01/26/2012 12:27 pm Eyeluvcoins, I have not run into a box of only newer pennies yet and I've gotten a bunch of boxes, but I hear they will be around when the 2012's come out in a month or two. My brinks boxes have about 25% to 30% copper and I get a lot more wheats in them than I do in CWR's. I get both boxes and CWR's and the boxes tend to be more consistant. CWR's can be real hit or miss. I have had 4 rolls of pure copper, but have also run into what must have been someone elses dump with no copper. Report this Post to the Staff

BuddhaBelly New Member 3 Posts	Posted 06/10/2013 10:40 pm Well, I went from bank to bank, one box at a time. Eventually I collected 6 new mint boxes:( I walked into a main boa branch and asked them if I could trade all 6 mint for 6 old and they said yes. So 6. Report this Post to the Staff

Whenever I place a big order,I have the teller call and I'll go to pick it up right away. This way no one is inconvenienced and they don't have to put the coins in the vault. I've never had any problems doing this. Report this Post to the Staff
