Ok, I cheated. These were rolled copper I bought off Craigslist...but I did sort them again

Out of curiosity can you say what you paid for copper from Craigslist?

He had $171.50 in mixed coin (no silver) of which the 21.50 was a part, 116.00 was 5 cent, and some Unc. State quarters. I gave $180 because I didn't have small bills to make 171.50. He was just glad to be rid of them all.

Lol. Face plus a ,,,convience fee...

No report just an observation. Cwr is sometimes frustrating, others, dare I say, exciting.
2 rolls in the last batch, newest coin 1983..and ,smelled, like grammas perfume drawer..ah ,60 years ago, memories.

And now ,I get 2 rolls solid 2024d. Cwr.

Geesh.

I just finished sorting twenty most unusual bwr Loomis rolls.
Much higher copper content (both American and Canadian) than normal. Also, a lot of wheats too.

394 TOTAL COPPER for an average of almost 20 per roll. Almost 40 percent copper from bwr!!!

two final notes: very few shield pennies, an average of only 3-4 shields per roll. Also, around 40-50 American 82's which I don't keep or include in the above numbers.
