The local school had a penny drive last week. I scored 9 bags from the local bank. Now I just have to find time to run them through the machine.

best thing is that the bank called me long distance to come pick them up. I went from the bank to a customers farm. I was standing outside the van talking to the customer and went to get something out. I quickly closed the door as I didn't need my customer to see a van full of money :)

Great score knibloe! Wish they would do more penny drives around here. I would even be willing to count them up for them and take care of getting rid of them.

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.

Yeah I agree with HCBTT. My daughter goes to a private Christian school and I am planing on talking to the staff about a penny drive and I would do the counting and hauling away of the pennies for them.

You don't have to be the BEST you just have to be.......SLICK

One of my banks has a church do an annual penny drive. Last year a got about a third of all the cents. I told the bank to remembe me next time. This would be a good time to remind them.

a glory cs-10 is very portable and you can offer to count them on site if you have one or can borrow one.

i woudl suggest to these folks to make it an annual event and to include you next year.

i saw a link on this site to some how-to's. once of them had an idea where you have different homerooms compete, and they could drop in silver etc.

Buying:
Peace/Morgan G+ at $15.00
copper cents at 1.3X
wheat pennies at 3X
