Here we go:
1) collect copper cents, using metal detectors or specific gravity tester, or by date and ignore the 1982.
2) Amass tons of them;
3) smuggle them over the border to Canada, while avoiding the border patrols,
(If you screw up on #3, don't worry you can check the values in 3 to 5 years.)
4) Convert Canadian $ to US Dollar, at an exchange loss.
5) Start over.

seems easier:
Collect empty bottles.
Drive them to Michigan to double your money, 10 cent deposit vs 5 cents in other states.
