Makes cents to me

Postby Chief » Wed May 25, 2011 5:54 pm

I've gotten many uncirculated boxes during pickups and sold them on ebay. I then use the profits from these auctions to buy coppers at about face value.
ex. $100fv uncirculated 2010's or 2011's sold at $140-160 (after fees) and buy a $100Fv copper lot. Uncirculated new pennies are worth more than copper technically. Make cents right? Am I alone in doing this?

I thought it was time for me to reveal myself.

what are uncirculated boxes? I know some are boxes with pennies that have never been circulated, but i've also seen some sold where they dont break the rolls but say what they see on either side of the rolls...
