Strange Box LP4's

Postby Slaphot » Wed Dec 29, 2010 8:11 pm

I picked up a box of cents at my local bank and they were machine wraped rolls with a plain brown wrapper. 43 of the rolls have brand new 2009 LP4's showing on at least one side. They are all BU!!! I opened one roll with two coppers showing at the ends and there were 38 BU 2009-P LP4's in mint condition and a mix of circulated zincs and coppers. I weighed each roll and they range from 126.2 to 142.5 grams. I just started getting boxes, I used to only get CWR. So I'm not sure how this happend? Is this normall? And what do you think I should do with them. Sell as is? Or open, sort, and sell the LP4's?.

Which bank in the burgh did you get them at? I got the same box yesterday from PNC Southland near century III mall on RT 51. I think I got 950 BU LP4 and the rest were 85% copper. Any others in District 4 or Pittsburgh finding these? Also ended up getting 10 wheats and about 10 canadians including one George VI 1940. Also wher do you dump so I dont go there :mrgreen:

woah. . . a couple a burghers here ehh. Havnt seen any boxes like this yet. I travel between houses in whitehall and natrona heights frequently and work dahntahn buying boxes the whole way. Dump frequently at Pgh mills PNC and 1st commonwealth along w/ a few others, so stay away. lol, Cool to know theres a few others around. Get them coppers before i do. Go pens/stillers!
Soooo... Is it just me or is a chart of US debt looking dangerously parabolic?
