Joemac came to my coin club meeting this evening.

It was good to meet you Joe! 8-) Sorry I was kind of pre-occupied with the coin dealings.
I will give you a shout when I get that Ace250 so we can get out and do some detecting.

Thanks for the warm welcome. I will be back, everyone was friendly and I felt welcomed. I've been to club meetings where you get the cold shoulder.

I'm going to be calling Community Bank of Tri County Monday to feel them out on setting an order up. Thinking about sorting a box every night maybe, we'll see.

My last $30 in pennies broke like this and I still don't have a way to sort the '82s I must get a scale

'82 111
'81 74
'80 78
'79 50
'78 107
'77 87
'76 66
'75 93
'74 66
'73 58
'72 48
'71 38
'70 39
'69 40
'68 37
'67 20
'66 11
'65 12
'64 43
'63 16
'62 10
'61 13
'60 8
'59 5

With the 10 wheats and 3 Canadian coppers that comes to 1143. So if $30 is 3000 coins my math shows 38%. Either my math is wrong or that was a particularly rich vein. I hope to get more of those.

Blast, you sure did. Should have listened. Oh, well. Can't win them all.

Just found a 2010 Yellowstone quarter, never knew they made these. Do they have any added value?

A guy local to me offered me $42.50 face of coppers for $60 trying to decide to get them or not. He is about three hours from me and is willing to meet half way. He says he is not sorting anymore and wants to offload the ones he has. This should come to about 1.4xface. I figure the question is; is my time worth .004 per penny
