I have a lot of S mint pennies that I have been pulling from hand sorting. What is the going rate for these? Right now, are they only as good as copper, and I'd be hard pressed to get 1.4 each, or are they more valuable?
Thanks,
David

| Not more valuable than regulars (yet) |
The first panacea for a mismanaged nation is inflation of the currency; second is war. Both bring a temporary (and false) prosperity; both bring a permanent ruin. But both are the refuge of political and economic opportunities. |

I think anything as big or bigger than a box of rolled Pennies qualifies as bulk.
Anything less I'd consider rolls (or maybe loose change). |
There's profit if you melt things!!

Anything over a ton would be considered bulk.  |
If your percentages are low.. just sort more. If your percentages are high.. just sort more.
Let me see if I understand this? If you cross the North Korean border illegally, you get 12 years hard labor; the Iranian border illegally you are detained indefinitely. If you cross the US border illegally, you get a driver’s license, a social security card, welfare, food stamps, free health care!

| I haven't counted, but to me, bulk would be more than what could fit in a small flat rate box. Ha. |

| I'm really not sure. I'd hate to list them in the Market Area and embarass myself by either asking too much for them, or listing it as an auction and not getting what I think is worth my time to seperate them. |
