Think about how much it would cost to ship all of that. That's almost 14 thousand pounds to ship. That can't be that cheap. Hmm, I wonder how many large flat rate boxes all of that could fit in.

I think 50K would be reasonable with free shipping... we should get a group together and offer him $30K... I'd pay a couple thousand for one of those bins... haha
Rest in Peace

Lets not be too hasty about the unsearched thing. If he was really quick and searched 50 coins/minute 24 hours a day, it would take about 28 days to search them all. I imagine he would miss one or two nice items after having eyestrain being awake for a month. Besides that, 4.4 cents each for wheats might be ok.

I too thought murrellington's site was up.
Just the logistics of shipping it is funny to think about. I thought I had a lot of cents to search when I was given 100 pounds of cents to search.

murrellington,
That is true and a good point, but I guess to me it was funny to say free shipping when it is really just already included in the price of the auction. I mean even if shipping was $10,000 he would still be making $38,000 over face value. I would have thought that large of a lot would have a bulk discount. Oh well to each their own.

you can see all the USPS boxes in the background haha. It probably would be cheaper to rent a Uhaul and dump them in the buyers front yard then trying to ship all those.

It be interesting for sure to some how check all those out.

I wouldn't go that far, but the price is really not that bad and I doubt he searched for varieties
