All that I have are about 5,000 wheats rolled up. About 1,000+ were found dirtfishing.

Not to beat a dead horse, but I spoke on fact (copper/bronze/brass) not nomenclature (inane pennies versus cents "debate").

ANYHOO...
If anything I collect them up because you'll never find pennies ever again in Canada, and especially not the older types. I can always roll them up with added goodies to make fantasy coin rolls for the future generations. I used to be able to buy boxes of pennies to hunt down copper-based coins and now that possibility is gone. You don't know what you've got till it's gone, as they say.

Fair enough, as long as this is a point of clarification and you are not saying greenprint is wrong. After all, calling them copper is appropriate given that they have a higher percentage of copper than silver coins have in silver.

Agreed!
