Got a box yesterday. Go to sort this morning and what do I find???? It is %95 2018 all bright and shiney. With 2/10 others mixed in. I know this happened around the same time a couple years ago.

Next box will be better.

I work at a business that needs coin to operate. Two boxes ago, all 2018. Last box, normal mixed box. I bought $5, ended up with 27.2% coppers w/ 1 wheat.

I'm glad that I don't have to dump zincs. I just sell them back and add $ to get back to what I bought. Next box...

ETA: The majority of my 135 Lincoln Memorial coppers were UGLY. I'm a white vinegar / salt cleaner, so a little more work.
