Is there any market you think for selling unsearched 1982+ zinc pennies for those looking for errors? I have no desire to search these for errors, Wide AMs, other crapola. I'm thinking a local coin shop might be interested in trading search copper pennies for these or am i crazy (or both)?

I doubt it, but error/variety searchers might buy solid date rolls of certain years. That is only IF they beleive that you didn't check them.

I tried it a couple of times with the guys over on CCF(coin community). Alot of die-hard error hunters overthere. No luck at all and I was trying to sell $75 face of my zinc dumps.

You never know what people might buy. :roll:

I saw a CL ad not too long ago and the guy was selling $1000 fv zinc for $900.
Guess he didn't have a dump plan.
I passed, seemed kinda shady.

I think I might have gone for that deal. I could easily fold those into my dump plan. He just didn't want to try to run 20 bags through a Coinstar machine. :mrgreen:
