He was hoping you would pay for gas.. with bricks of pennies of course.

I remember when this 1 ton club thing was kind of an exclusive club. Now anybody with a Ryedale can get there in no time.

If your percentages are low.. just sort more. If your percentages are high.. just sort more.

Now selling Copper pennies. 1.6x plus shipping. Limited amounts available.

OK-

That did it.

Time for a contest- If you can steal my pennies you can have them!

and... 50 grand in office equipment aint $3000 in pennies. Rent your uhaul and come get'm!

Come to think of it, I could use one of those around here- I'll put hay in it and leave it in the pasture.




This could be a great contest, but what are the rules? Promise not to shoot us or turn the dogs on us? If so, we may just sit down and drink whiksey and talk about your hoard while we watch the sun set over your hay pasture.

Rich is not owing any money to anybody, and not spending what you haven't got." Robert Ruark

That's more like it.
You can have the whiskey in my cabinet - I'll drink beer.
I figure drive out to the pond with a cooler and fish.
I might let you see the cage full of wild Texas injuns.
Nobody wants a bucketful of old pennies anyway.

Beer is my currency.

Probably carries a gun.... Right? I would love to go to TXTim's and hang out. I don't even drink, so even better for you guys. I love to fish. Not real good at it, but love to catch fish....

Oh yeah, in order to pay in zincs, I would have to actually sort some of those ----> bags of pennies for the gas money. I have been neglecting my Ryedale, although I did give it a complete lube/clean tonight. Ready for whenever....

I blame Horgad for setting me back about 500 lbs when he bought some of my stash. But hey, I wasn't going to carry around all that copper for my vacation money!

I hope to hit my first ton in the next four months or so, depending on how much I have time to sort.

i'm sure i've bought more than a ton of pennies, but with the percentages i'm getting i haven't even hoarded my own weight in copper yet... Gonna be a long time hitting a ton buying CWRs $10 at a time.

Considering Verizon Business service? Perhaps you'd like to consider a nice drain cleaner enema instead?

According to the official minted weight, there are exactly 100 Canadian nickels per pound. One ton would therefore be 200,000 nickels or precisely $10,000 dollars face (100 bricks). That is pretty convenient math.

Congrats on your 1/2 ton - I'll try to catch up!

Canadian nickels are 4.54 grams each. 454 grams = 1 pound = $5 face. The math is beautiful isn't it.

I have a consistent supply of these and sell as I go. With nickel down, I have been stacking them recently.

Right now, 1/2 ton delivered works out to $10k. Good deal if someone wants to get in big. Drop me a line if you can handle it.

halfway there. i think someone once said a ton will fit in a 55 gallon drum. maybe one of the big hoarders stores that way?? unmovable once filled of course but a surprisingly small footprint.
