How's this ratio?

Postby Morsecode » Wed Feb 23, 2011 7:19 pm

From approx 150,000 cents sorted...2 Indians :D

I make that to be 0.0000133333

Probably like what finding a copper lincoln will be in 50 years

Yea but I also only have a paltry 16% success rate for cu and a dismal 40% for cu '82s. I'll trade my three little Indians for a better cu success rate in a second. :roll:
