I thought I had gotten every kind of penny there was to get until today. I have gotten CWR, Loose Bags, Brinks Wrap, Loomis Wrap, Dunbar Wrap, Generic Wrap, Pond Pennies, Canadian Pennies, Steel Pennies, Wheat Pennies, and even Indian Head Pennies. But I got another first today. Stopped by one of my regular banks on a drive buy.. they had 2 bank wrapped boxes for me, 12 CWR and something new.. 15 rolls of Deep Fried Pennies!!! Seems they fell in the fat at a restaurant. They asked me if I wanted them.. I said Sure!  Heck, Deep Fried Snickers and Deep Fried Twinkies are good.. so why not Deep Fried Pennies? The Bank had actually rerolled them in fresh paper. Curious what I might get inside. They probably fried the S mint mark right off the 1909 VDB that is probably inside one of those rolls.

Don't you dare put those in the Ryedale, with the counters and the coin cup issue, those deep fried pennies could open up a whole new set of problems, like, "Andy my coin sorter smells like french fries", or "Hey Andy, I found this chicken bone lodged in the doomaflapper, what do I do?"

| Hey.. my counter stopped long ago, and I have already worn out more than my fair share of coin cups.. this is just part of my ever increasing efforts to put the Ryedale to the test.. to be the first to break something that no hoarder has broken before. |

Hoard,
Those are probably the most sanitary pennies you will ever get. |

Nah.. those shiny new zincers are the most sanitary.
They weren't really any different from raw pennies.. came out to about 22% copper. |
