What is the current going price for copper cents.

Just wondering what the market price is now for copper cents. I know what coinflation says they are worth just wondering what the buy price would be. I have alot to get rid of not getting any younger. I however will continue to hand sort because it is relaxing to me.

The price can vary depending on if the coins must be shipped or if they are picked up locally. I would say 1.4x face is a fair price shipped, and 1.5x face if no shipping costs are involved

I get $150 on craigslist occasionally. I really won't sell for less. Not a tom of takers though. Just a few

Tmat posts occasional buy/sell prices and I would call that the "market" range.

His buy last Friday was $135 per CTU and his sell was $150 per CTU.

So if you can get a bit more than $135 delivered you are doing reasonably. And if you can buy for a bit less than $150 delivered you are doing reasonably.
