Don't feel bad, I just bought $100 worth of CWRs today during lunch.
I'll sort them tonight, even though I still have 40 boxes or so from my last two bank purchases still waiting on me! |

| I search over 1k a month but i usually get greedy so i'll pick up more than 1k in a week and spend 2 weeks returning zincs. It's a lot harder to return coins when you're not motivated to leave the house or interact with people or move. |
Selling Copper cents. $0 FV available at 1.4xFV. Also interested in trading for wheat pennies and other coins Please pm me for requests or inquiries.

| Currently, I trade two sorted bags each week to a fellow who is looking for errors, I pick up two bags from a credit union and four bags from a bank for a total of 8 bags a week, which equals 16 boxes or $400.00 per week. Part of the Zincolns go back to a Credit Union counter and part go back to a bank where I have a business account. I could do more, but getting rid of the Zincolns is the difficult part without rolling them. If I can find another dump, I may increase my sorting. I too look at it as a part time job. I have not sold any. |

| This is an old post, and I am surprised at the low number choices that HCBTT put in the poll. If this was revised today, I wonder if the numbers would be different? |

I'm in the $50-$100 a week hand-sorting category. I guess for some of you guys you would call that very "casual" sorting. I do it for fun and relaxation as my SILVER searching has been very bad.  |

JWray,
feel free to 'restart' the hoard code. Just figure it out and put it in the Profile: signature line
How'd this thread get resurrected again anyway? |

| Super hand-hoarder, 100-150 per week. I really need to upgrade to a Ryedale Ace, as I'm sitting on ~450 in unsorted at the moment, but I enjoy the DIY aspect. |

| I would say I'm a regular hoarder. I do about a box or two a week. I do it by hand with the help of a digital scale. Funny how someone watching you wants to help out. |

Yeah.. it seemed like a decent amount back then. I just added another new bank to the standard $600 a week plan today. |

| Already returning more zincs than that. If I don't keep up the pace the pennies really start to stack up. |
