That's the best price I have seen on Canadian copper in a long time. Congrats!

That's an extremely good price. If I could get them at 1 cent each I'd buy as many as possible... I guess it just didn't occur to them that they were copper...

I think at the coin shop they make most there money on silver and gold sales.

Sure, but that's no reason to sell other stuff way below the market rate.

That's great, the Canadian dollar is at parity with the U.S. dollar so they're worth 25% more than you paid without even considering the copper value.
