The first ton is the hardest.After you perfect your game,they come much easier.

No matter how many tons you have.. there is always room to perfect your game a little more. Congrats on a good start.

? for you all with the auto sorters. How exactly do they work, do they separate the wheats, etc. or is it just simply separating the coppers from the zincs.

Pretty good!

Alas, they do not sort out the wheats. That requires an optical sorter and proper feed system.. which is under long term development between me and a good friend of mine who is also a member here. Right now I just leave the wheats in the copper pile.. that is what most buyers prefer anyway.

A quarter ton, eh? Nice. Just make sure your hoard is on the bottom floor (or basement). Not sure if the floorboards would hold if you were upstairs and your coppers were stacked in a tiny area.

I use one gallon salad dressing containers (35 lbs) and they shake the floor upstairs when I plop one down...

Do the pennies smell like salad dressing? If you ever sell them that might be a nice selling point

Start diggin a tunnel over towards your neighbor's house. Fill it with coppers, too. By the time it gets full, you can buy your neighbor's house, tear down the wall between his basement and your freshly dug tunnel and fill the new basement. Repeat as necessary until you own all the houses in your neighborhood.
