I was dumping rolls of pennies in my coin counter to weed out the junk before they hit the Ryedale. As I dumped one out I saw a bunch of steel pennies. I was able to catch 7 of them before they shot through the machine.

I have a old 12" Subwoofer basket that has a very strong magnet in it. I used it to retrieve the other 8.

I though it was "sweet" to find 15 in one roll.

You don't have to be the BEST you just have to be.......SLICK

Nice score. That many at once is a rarity. Nice.

Live free or die.
Plain and simple.

"If you love wealth more than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, depart from us in peace. We ask not your council or your arms. Crouch down and lick the hand that feeds you. May your chains rest lightly upon you and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen."

Nice Slick,

I just found my first Steelie this past week. Such a good feeling. But to multiple that feeling by 15 would be stunning.

That is a nice haul Slick. I only found 1 steel today out of $1000 sorted. This is the first steel I have found in a while.

If your percentages are low.. just sort more. If your percentages are high.. just sort more.

Nice haul! Steels are hard to find in the wild. i have found 8 this year. I go very lucky at work earlier in the year and for a week these rolls kept showing up with the same wrapper. Every roll with those wrappers had atleast one steelie in them except for the last one which had none. It was a nice week lol. Congrats on 15 at once. Its those kinda mini scores that keep our blood pumping!
