Poll Question:
I've been on this site for almost 6 months and I haven't seen this poll yet. This will surely depress me as I will probably in the lower end of the pack, but I have to know. Just to be clear, I would include Indian Heads, Wheats, Canadian Cu and Culls.
How many copper pennies do you own?

| By my calculations, 1 million copper pennies would equal about 3.2 tons of copper. Are you saying there should have been a 5 million penny (16 tons) category? |

or at least a 2.5 and a 5 million choice.
1 million is only $10,000.00
If you put away 200.00 a week that is over 10K in one year. |

Live free or die.
Plain and simple.
"If you love wealth more than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, depart from us in peace. We ask not your council or your arms. Crouch down and lick the hand that feeds you. May your chains rest lightly upon you and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen."

Whoohoo.. we get to count the culls!!! I didn't think "Ugly Abes" counted.
The answer to the question: "Not enough."  |
If your percentages are low.. just sort more. If your percentages are high.. just sort more.

Putting away $200/week in fiat is not as big of an issue for some as having to sort through 100,000 tokens weekly in order to rescue 20,000 Abe's |

| I know we have some big folks with lots of time and cash to do this, but I am happy I have passed the $100 mark. One day when I have time I will check and see, possibly getting closer to $200. |

| I acquired most of my pennies in 1980 from my local bank, when I found out they were changing the cent to a zinc composition. When I got them from the bank in those days, the tellers told me they would never take the pennies back. I never brought them back. |

At that level of sorting the zinc returns get a little tricky. |
