FTW!
My massive hoard at the moment.

I am getting old had to look up "FTW" and from http://netforbeginners.about.com/od/f/f/What-Is-FTW-for-the-Win.htm

Question: What Is 'FTW'? What Does It Mean?
While participating in an online discussion forum about cars, you see this weird expression "FTW". People post phrases like "anti-lock braking, ftw!" and "all-wheel drive, ftw!". You also see the same thing in an online gaming forum. The gamer participants are posting phrases like "polymorph, ftw!" and "druid hurricane, ftw!".

Answer: In 2011, the most common meaning of "FTW" is "for the win", an internet expression of general enthusiasm.

While there were nastier meanings in previous years, FTW today commonly stands for "For the Win". It is an expression of enthusiasm. "FTW" is a type of cheer, or a strange way of exclaiming "this is the best" or "this item will make a big difference, I recommend using it". Examples would include: "anti-lock braking, ftw!", "spellchecker, ftw!", and "low-carb diets, ftw!"

Not copper, but...

The tellers at my credit union were suprised when I ramped up from $20/week to $40/week.
Then I told them about your operation... (One of them mentioned annother CU member
that bought some silver from you.) I'm glad I haven't gotten stuck with any of your dumps yet.
Obviously with your level of volume you aren't doing your dumps at the Safeway self-check
out like I do.

Only 40 miles from SF mint? How many 'S' mint marks in there?

[HoardCopperByTheTon]

Dang.. I was wondering how many I could sneak out the back door before one of you guys busted me.. lol. Even as close to the SF mint as I am.. due to low mintages and many years the Granite Lady did not produce cents.. a typical copper mix only contains 5-7% S mint cents. Certainly not enough for me to warrent looking at the dates. Heck, I don't even have time to pull the wheat cents out.

No, but I have lurked on this board (at this and the old site) years before I signed up
to post and it's kinda hard to not remember when you post a picture of tons and tons
of nickels just before shipping them out.

The only reasons I've never been to your store is:

-I bought most of my physical silver before then from Kitco or Jerry down in Grand Forks,
my "old" savings is all invested.
-I haven't really had any "new" savings for the last few years since things slowed down at my
work, getting by, just no significant extra money.
-That damned PST on coins really discourages buying local.
