First "cast" of season hooks a wild Indian
Posted: Thu Apr 28, 2011 7:00 pmI just bought my first Ryedale, but am waiting on the Dri-Slide to come in. So for old times sake I handsorted a Brinks Box; my first penny sort this year. The mix was for the most part boring, a few wheats, Canadians, etc. But then out of nowhere I hooked an 1882 Indian Head Penny! This is my fourth one in five years! 
Now its on to some serious Ryedaling! Although most of my time has been spent on acquring silver over the last year, I always try to think counter-intuitive. Very little attention is being given to copper (much like gold and silver previously). Perhaps if a newer, more debased penny is introduced (or if it is eliminated due to hyper-inflation), copper's time will come.

My system is set up using an Indian head as the comparitor coin. This has a tendency to keep the older Wheats in with the copper. Keep an eye on zincs for escaping Indians! Also dri-slide does not work for me. I personally found liquid wrench penetrating oil to be A+++. I can run $300 with no jams. I am sure everyone has their own way of operating. But this method works best for me.
