(first of all you shouldn't be looking for error coins while your on high dose pain killers. (My back is all messed up I dont take them for fun. (but they are fun)) you think almost every coin has an error on it

okay anyways

I live in Kansas and it seems like 98% of the coins are from the Denver ment I dont know if this is normal for everyone I normally find 5-10 S mints in a box. so I was thinking if this is not normal for everyone in the USA some of us searchers could do a trade of bank rolls pretty much 2 people from different parts of the USA goes to the bank and gets a Box then ship the box to the other person. Not sure what the shipping charges are but thats the only extra expense that is there. I think it would be fun. anyway.

Bye.

I've been swapping cent boxes for years with a number of different people. I used to send predominantly D mint boxes from Missouri to the East coast, but now I live in South Florida. Most of the coins here are P mint.

I'm into pennies. It's really only way I can afford to search. though I probably have 100 dollars in pennies sitting in bags that I need to cash in.
anyone have any ideas on what it cost to ship?

I'm out here on the left coast of Kalifornia. I'm still finding plenty of s-mints in the boxes I search. I honestly don't want to "swap", but I am more than willing to ship boxes to those that would like some.

My BofA branch uses Brinks, and I've never had a problem getting boxes. 3 boxes fit inside a USPS medium flat-rate box, and the shipping with confirmation is right around $12 I think. Yeah, the box is heavy...but it's under the 70lb weight limit. "If it fits, it ships!" ;)

I can fit 30 rolls inside a small flat-rate...and those ship for $5.90 with delivery confirmation.

I'd be more than happy to ship some boxes/rolls to the folks here at CCF.

Shoot me a PM if you're interested.

Shouldnt be to expensive to ship. I would go the USPS route. 12.95 for a large flat rate and 10.95 for a Medium flat rate box. You can stuff up to 70lbs in them and the price doesn't change. Also they offer delivery confirmation and insurance.
