I'm not presently tracking 1982. Too much work. I have a separate pail for ALL '82, but it's just as likely I'll haul them back on a dump run one of these days. I'd never put the '82 coppers in with my '59 - '81 anyway.

[cwgii]

Nor do I. They are weighed, then separated to.,d,p,cull,small date.,rolled and put in individual boxes

[Morsecode]

That's a good way to do it. Might as well keep them all in their own sub-stacks since your already examining them the first time around.

I guess I'll keep my pail. Some week when there are no cent boxes to be had it'll give me something to do.
