today, and picked up $45.00 in pennies and $20.00 in nickels
I will post the average of what is in the haul in a couple of days...also..I need a good loop to see the coins better. so I stopped at at a mom & pop optometrist store. the guy was very friendly..he asked me I had a Harber Freight magazine...well well...being the tool freak that I am Yes I do!
he said the type you put on your head and look out of both eyes, with or without a light is in the magazine..cheap..but of good value. I do not know this to be true. I am taking the ole boys word on it. will look later

Good luck! Dont know if it's a good thing or bad, looking bank rolled 2nd hand. 1 hand, they maybe freshly searched, the other, perhaps it's an accumulation.

I questioned the teller...she said they were from a company
also did a quick sneaky peak in the car of one roll..found 3- 70's and a 63 in about a half roll I poured in my hand.
will not cost me anything but time.
..also told me all she gets in, in boxs is new from mint stuff
? any body tell you that?

keep your fingers crossed for me

forget the visor magnifier. they are heavy no matter who makes them. if you want loupes, just get the little HFT set of 5 of them while they are on sale. 2x, 3x, 5x, 7x, 10x all for $4. get one of those cheap helping hands tools for soldering for $2.99 and you could mount a loupe onto it in place of its magnifying lens with a little work and set it where you just place the coin on the surface under it.

i got a bunch of 2004 cents and nickels sitting in the rolled @4 boxes I have right now. as with everything it is all about location and volume.

I just tried the thing 30 minutes ago in HFT and it was front hevay and wanted to keep sliding own so I left it at the store. maybe there is another model the sell online that isn't as heavy but this thing was drastic. I would prefer to get the loupe set or clip-on lenses for turning regular glasses into up to 16.5 magnification. like all these things made in china, quality vareis by brand, and even from pack to pack within the same brand...
