Been sorting for a while off and on for Halves, just started with pennies. I hand sort, and will probably continue to do so until I can justify to the missus the cost of a Ryedale or some such. It's all good...I'm working midnight shift in a job that requires a whole lot of sitting still, so it works out well. Three boxes into this grand adventure I have the following:

1872 Copper (1959-1981)
107 Canadians (There would be more, but I used 1990 as my cutoff unknowingly)
19 wheats
2 Canadian kings (1920 & 1952)
1 Penny (British)
1 Bahamian Cent
2 dimes (clad)
and finally one fake plastic penny!

which leaves 5495 zinc to reinvest.

nice numbers. ~25% copper is great.

So you get to sort pennies while at your job? That's not fair! lol

Very good wheat count, good on the Kings too. I assume you are in a Northern State I only get 2-5 Canadians per box in Cincinnati.

Currently in Maine near the border, so that explains all the canadians.

Hang on to the 1982's until you get a small scale. Most 82's are copper.
