$25.00 Brinks box.

482 -Pre 82 coppers
23 -82 coppers
1 -Copper canuck
15 -Wheaties

Slighty over 20% copper which seems the usual for around here.
"If the American people ever allow private banks to control the issue of their currency, first by inflation, then by deflation, the banks and corporations that will grow up around them will deprive the people of all property until their children wake up homeless on the continent their Fathers conquered....The issuing power should be taken from the banks and restored to the people, to whom it properly belongs."

Should have gotten in on this thread earlier. Never kept stats on my copper sorting but I will give it a try now.

$25 box yeilded:

511 lincoln coppers
9 wheats
5 Canadians

Slightly over 20% CU for this box.

Friend just came back from a trip to New York and let me have his change. :D

9 cents(!) plus a few quarters and whatnot:

I got 2 Ugly Abes (1964, 1981)

Not bad considering I don't have access to US coins en masse!

I like the other change too, I got:

1 Nickle
2 Dimes
5 Quarters (Hawaii, Tennessee, North Dakota and two eagles, best of which being a 1980 - my birth year!)
Scotsman in residence...

The bankers rubbed their palms together, and the economy went up in flames.
