Industrialized Coin Collecting

Hey guys,

Thought I would post on what I am setting up for my business and indirectly my coin collecting.

I am going to be one of the few members or only one perhaps on CCF (based on lack of data coming up on searches) taking a more industrial approach to collecting.

I will be using a Cummins 4000, two Ryedale Automaxx models, and a bill counter for counting, sorting, banding, and bagging all coins that come through my business, probably starting in early November. There are reasons for this.

1. Sheer volume! I will never get as much done as quickly and efficiently and make sure most or all coins of value are recovered. I also have to automate more of my processes to try to keep the bank happy.

2. Foreign coins. In order to make my deposits Fed-friendly I must eliminate all foreign coin from my bags. The Ryedales pick up the slack here as I also am getting the dime wheel/plate kits for both to do them as well.

3. Silver/Copper Hunt. I can also use the Ryedales for the obvious copper/wheat hunting as well and silver dimes. Quarters and other coin types will have to be done differently of course but those I can handle.

This will be an interesting project and I am excited about it. I know it will turn up a great volume of good finds and a matter of time before some great finds. Looking forward to the challenge.
