Just got back from the bank where I picked up 4 boxes of pennies. 2 were different. Solid boxes so couldn't see what was in them but had a seal that had MIRACLE DELIVERY, A TOLL FREE NUMBER AND TX. Inside was solid 2010 Shield pennies in both boxes. What a surprise! We never got the other ones - LP1, LP2, LP3 ETC. They are pretty but I don't collect them.

Very cool!!!! Congrats on the great luck. You should be able to sell these on eBay for $70 to $95 per box. But maybe you could put them up for auction here and see if any members would be interested.
I'm sure that you'll be able to make some money on them. Also, try to see if they are P or D mint. |

They are all D's. Wish I had known what they were so I wouldn't have broken the seal. I also got 10 rolls that were loose in that cwr trays. Will consider selling them for sure. |

By the way, that number on the seal is the number to American Civil Liberties! Sooooooo, what does that mean? |

I don't know. I have a feeling that highroller4321 might know more about it than I. |

Well, I suppose I might have made a mistake. I decided to look at the rolls I got today again and they each read Miracle Delivery Armored Service. Didn't pay that much attention earlier just that they were new pennies. I did call the toll free number twice and got the same answer twice and it was not Miracle Delivery. I finally Googled it and it is an Armored Service in El Paso and New Mexico. I have never seen any of their boxes in this area so maybe they are expanding their services. Me being me could have dialed the wrong number but checked it after the first time and redialed. Got forwarded to an answering machine a few minutes ago but still it did answer Miracle Delivery. Sorry for the wrong information. |

Got two more boxes of the 2010 Shield Pennies from the same bank different branch. Didn't open them but was told they were the new ones. The larger banks don't have any, check quite a few today. |

Dang you! I would kill if my bank would give me those now. When I got a box of LP4 at first I was mad, no coppers. But those things sold like hotcakes on ebay and I pulled $1-2 profit per roll on them on each sale, even after fees. Cash out those profits and keep buying em. Nothing like a free $50 - $100 per box. |
MOVING SALE!!! Selling Copper Cents 1.4 shipped - in limited quantities PM me and we'll talk. |

WOW! One more box of those 2010 Shield Pennies. Unless they get some more the well has gone dry. The teller said they came from the Feds. Also got 5 more single rolls. Our other little bank did not get any yet so maybe they will have some soon. Keep looking, if they are coming from the Feds?. |
