Several months ago, I bought lots of coins from a friend's dad (he was going to roll them and turn them into the bank). I paid face for the nickels, dimes, quarters and halves and $1.54 per pound for the cents. Didn't find but a couple of peices of silver (and lots of pre 60's nickels). Pulled a test run today on the copper I got (about 80 pounds). Here are the results. The six little stacks on the right are zinc, the REST is copper. Got 20 S mint coins and four 1970S, all large dates. Can't wait to go through the rest.

Yea, nothing like an old hoard! Now, that's how you get "unsearched" coins!
