I just picked up a box of pennies from the bank. The rolls had labels with someone's address and the addy on the labels was typed with an old typerwriter. I was very excited thinking I may have hit the wheat mother load.
However, they are just solid rolls of copper pennies. All 1977 and prior.
Only a couple of wheats. At least I dont have to sort them :) This is my 1st solid copper box and Ive been sorting for a couple of years.

Maybe you should just drive to their house and ask if they had any halves. |

Not if you cut the letters out of magazines or newspapers. |

When you do it, dress up like a fireman or a dog catcher.
They'll think you're there to help them. |

| You know the weird thing with the rolls is that there are 4 different names and addresses on the rolls. The names and addresses don't match. |
