So I get a chance to actually open my packages and sort pennies every other weekend and I have ALOT to do. How long do you think it would take to roll and twist and crimp 75 dollars FV of copper discs by myself :x

Please post pictures of the rolls once you've twist and crimped them. I'm interested in what they look like when sealed.

I have a rolling machine myself. :D

I am interested in how long it takes by hand so I will wait for your update.

I would guess that doing it manually is about 90 mins.

yeah shouldn't take too long, I hand roll all of my Zn( I pick up and drop off at the same bank), and I can do a whole box i abou 25 minutes, if you use a coin tube to count out the pennies I am sure you could do a box every 15 minutes or so.
