i may shoot myself in the foot. but i have been saving up the 09-11
's until i have about a bag.... then , when i go to dump. i can tell when the machine 'switches bags'.... and dump that whole bag of new coins.

ie , dont come to tucson to buy bags out of the machines.

By far my best copper box ever. You would think a box this heavy with copper would have had more wheats in it.

986 Non Wheat and Non Canadian Copper (39.4%)
9 Wheat - from 1941 to 1957

The Philipines coin was minted in 1995. The Central Bank of the Philipines (aka. Philipines Federal Reserve Bank) was created in 1993. That's what the reverse of the 1 sentimos coin commemorates.
