This week I searched $50 of pennies from a bag (5,000 pennies). I hand sort by date, rejecting all the 1982s. I found: 4 dimes; 1 mexican 20-something. 1101 pre 1982 coppers, including 18 I categorize as AU or close to. 31 2009 which I save while they are still in AU condition --- I am not sure why I save 2009s. And 34 wheats from the 1950s; 18 wheats from the 1940s; 3 wheats from the 1930s, and 4 wheats from the 1920s. 0 older than 1920. The 4 from the 1920s were: 29s, 24s, 29s, 20D. In the 1940s was one 1943, but unfortunately, it was steel. Thats a total of 59 wheats. My % was approximately 22% coppers, and 1% wheats. This took me several hours. Not sure what the ROI is ---- I guess I would have to know what else I would have done with those hours. |

$20 CWRs
1540 1/10 toz .950 fine US coined copper bullion - 77% (my best ever in a CWR lot) 6 Wheats (40-50s) 5 Cu Canadian
The only negative was that each of the 40 rolls were short 2-4 cents each, but with 77% Cu I didn't mind at all. |

$25 BANK SORTER BAG 622 COPPER 25% 2 AU 4 UGLY
Return was a conflict they said I only returned $9.31 Reran the penny bag they changed off an still said I only gave them $9.31 Finally went back to morning bal an found they were off $9.45 tot was then $18.76 which was one cent off my projected return. They gave me the $18.76 but I'm not sure if they will try to cut me off. Hopefully they will find where the error was made an be happy |

latest $500 sort
15536 cu 102 wheats 78 canadian 1 panama centesimo ( i have at least 5 of these now ) 34283 zincers
31.07% copper
as much as i hate it, im gonna have to cut back quite a bit on the sorting for a while.
working too many hours as it is and as that country song goes theres just "too much month at the end of the money"
ive definately got good percentages though so i'll keep at it when i can....
