I just sorted my first box of Pennies!!!!
I got about 37-40% copper out of it.
Also found 12 wheaties and 3 Canadian pennies.
It's an addiction....now to the next box!!!

Ignore Step 5. Feel free to ask her out on a date, though.
(When the subject of marriage comes up, postpone it as long as possible)
