I haven't started to go through it with a magnifier yet. But the last 3 boxes I have went through only had a handful of copper in. Check out this chunk of copper from one box. I just tried a new bank. I also got a handful of wheat cents one is a 1919 S that is in good shape. I wish all boxes where this good. #128517; tons of 50s 60s and 70s. Maybe I am to exited but I thought it was awesome.  |

The possibility of making money by saving copper cents, after time and transportation costs are factored in, is virtually zero.  |

It is possible that the coppers are all culls from another CRH'er.

Nice haul. And hoarding copper cents is okay. Keeps them from being illegally melted.  |

Nice haul on the copper cents; that is cool that you found that many copper cents.

Rural or not, takes only one local copper hoarder to flood a couple banks with dumps. Couple years ago hoarders were dumping thousands of pounds back into circulation due to the fact they had little interest from buyers.

I have hardly went through them yet do to school events for my kids. But I definitely know they wouldn't throw back huge lamination errors, railroad rims, tilted coins, and huge die breaks. This is just dividing and sorting them I found these. I promise once I get a bit more time to post some pics I will. *family 1st always* :)

I had a few deaths in The family. I will be back soon guys. I still have several boxes of pennies to go through and so so many coppers to sort even 1903s I managed to get. Hopefully this weekend.
