I hoard copper pennies. i go to the bank as often as i can to get rolls of pennies because the branch i belong to does not have boxes to give me at most times. i have gotten about 1300 copper pennies sp far and this is my first month collecting. i also just started collecting nickel that i get from my poket change. im 17 so i dont have much cash flow as i am getting ready for college. anyway the is an antiques dealer near where i live that is selling rolls of silver wartime nickels for 14.95 a roll. spot price for a roll of silver nickels is about 24 dollars a roll. my question is i have about 200 dollars would it be best to buy 13 rolls of nickels resulting in 26 ozs of ssilver at about 117 dollars below spot or should i go with buying 200 dollars worth of pennies searching them for copper pennies and the use the rest to buy silver nickels
