Welcome!
First of all, you really didn't need to post this topic in four different sections of the forum, but you can sell to people right here on this forum in the buy/sell sections, but you'll be competing with other sellers as well. You'll also need to establish yourself a little more with the members before people are comfortable enough to conduct business with you. You'll also need 10 or more posts before you'll be able to send/recieve private messages with other members. |

Welcome to the forum. We welcome your participation.
I removed some of your duplicate posts and placed this thread in the correct area (Buy it Now). We also ask that you have at least 10 posts before you start selling in the Market Area. Best of luck - there are buyers for Cu pennies here. |

Welcome,
1.3-1.6x face value is what you can expect to sell at. But keep in mind interest in your "lots" will likely fall dramatically if your price gets any higher than 1.4 cents a piece.
Although spot is higher the amount left in circulation push the price lower.
Good luck! |

Welcome! In my opinion if you are serious about sorting in bulk I think you will find the Ryedale is the machine you need. Visit: You must be logged in to see this link.
The person who invented the machine is named Andy i.e. member name Ryedale. I'm sure he will be happy to talk with you. |

| By the way, make sure you hold on to your wheat pennies too! They will sell for for three and a half to four cent each. |

Yes. I do my sorting by the box of 2500 pennies, and on average find about 11-12 wheat cents. |

Welcome copperpenny1001,
I would suggest the Ryedale if you have the capital and are going to sort large amounts of pennies.
You have entered into a whole new world that has many challenges and rewards.
Don't be afraid to ask questions. We are all here to learn from each other. |
You don't have to be the BEST you just have to be.......SLICK

| I do all my deals by email here on the forum. There is a really good thread on how to ship too. You want to have $95-$100 in Copper pennies before you sell them - because that is how many go in a 70 lb flat rate USPS box. |

| When shipping $100.00 of copper at one time, I always ship in a canvas bank bag and use a lot of tape and go all the way around the box in all directions. That way if a corner of the box does open up you don't loose any pennies. I have had people ship me pennies in a Wal-Mart bag with very little tape on the box so the corners opened up and I did not get all I paid for. |
COPPER - the "poormans" precious metal!!!
SELLING - $100.00 face copper shipped to you for $189.00 machine rolled or bagged - PM me if your interested. |
