I met a couple copper coin hounds at a local bank branch. (tellers, young men)

They sniffed me out after a series 2 box nickel pickups.

They have a Ryedale and at least one home made sorter and great enthusiasm.

They have a local bag source and I hope to connect to some halves this way.

I pointed them here, time will tell.
