When the copper dries up, there's always the take a penny give a penny tray! I was buying a six pack this weekend and when she was making change, I found myself poking through the tray...............

Here in the Fort Wayne, IN area, I get about 30% consistently in $50 bags from my local bank. I sort as many as 5-6 bags a week with my Ryedale and have been working on my hoard for a couple of years now. I only find about 15 wheats per bag which sounds much lower than others. Also, I find alot of canadian coppers in the mix. I always search to coppers to pull out these and other odd finds (foreign coins, etc.). Happy hunting to all on Realcent.

598 Cu

I did not weigh before but I suspect they had a tube or something that put 52 or 53 coins per roll.
