the motherload of corroded pennies.  Took me a while to figure out what was going on. An excessive number of pennies are silver, tan, blue, green, etc, box after box. Once I got them all in the sort bucket, it became clear. It looks just like the bottom of a water fountain. I believe I got them all, 6 boxes worth. Now I have to hand sort to protect the Ryedale.

Just my two cents! |

I would consider dumping all of them. No sense hand sorting for culls when you could be getting better conditioned coins from your rydale. |

Ouch, tough luck.  It happens, all you can do is dump them and get a fresh batch. My personal unfavorite is grease and oil, coins all stickin' together...
