Well, was doing some sorting tonight and I ran into my first 2011 cent. Still not sure how I feel about it; just another year to sort, I suppose. :? Anyway, the penny was already in average crap condition with lots of spots on it. A shame really, as I can't even put it in the Dansco folder.

So....on a positive note....here's what else I got out of $127.83 in pennies (3 boxes, the rest CWR's)

2782 Cu (21.7%)
6 are 1960s MS-BU and good enough to be carded.

44 Wheats (the earliest was 1942, but two were semi-shiny AU/MS)
1 Steel Cent (decent 1943-S)

1- Blank penny planchet (kinda cool actually)
1- Canada 1932 cent. My first one! Cool.
1- One Centesimo (Panama)
1- Five centavos Mexico 1960
5- CDN coppers

Hahaha. :) No. Actually, a few pennies looked a bit rough and not worth sorting or counting, so I pulled them manually when checking them after unrolling them. So the counter gave me 127.83, which was then ran through the Ryedale.

Nice! Yeah, whenever I'm at the bank, I always ask the teller(s) to give me a box with the 50 holes in it, so as to increase my chances that it's a box with new 2010/2011 cents in it.
