our findings in our first box plus 14 rolls

Postby mrrosado » Mon Aug 20, 2012 5:08 pm

Well I must admit I"m posting this because I want to be able to raise funds for our World Youth Group Trip on the boards here. (for more info go to http://www.stjohnsgoshen.com/wyd)
After searching through a $25 box with a (I think its called coinalyzer machine). We got 5 pounds 6.2 oz of copper pennies and about 23 wheat cents.
I like collecting Gold and Silver. I prefer the Silver stuff. God Bless You.

Nice, that should be around $8.00 not to bad for 1 box, but is your weight the total weight of the pennies, remember when selling they have zinc in them, so the copper is actually less( I see people list like this all the time on ebay 68lbs of copper$100 fv, in reality it is 65 lbs of copper and 3 lbs of zinc). 23 wheats is also really good for 1 box, I was averaging between 40- 50 wheats per box, and it seems the average on here is around 10.
