OH how I wish all my sorts were like this!
Posted: Thu Jan 13, 2011 5:12 pmHere's an incredible (albeit incredibly small) copper yield. I'm pretty fresh to the copper harvesting game (think I'm closing in on $125 fv copper) and I'm a small-time handsorter (usually $30/wk at most). On a whim I decided to try a bank in town that I'd never gotten any pennies from, and I hit them up for $10 worth. First oddity was the rolls themselves. "Minitube" is stamped near the bottom edge of the roll, and each of them have a round cardboard insert in the bottom. For all I know they might be fairly common, but I'd never seen them before. Here's a pic:
Now onto the copper yield:
506/1000 CU which included 7 wheaties including a '43 steel, and one of those super-cool JFK stamped '73. I'll take 50%+ any day!
