Its name aside, nickels are 3/4 copper, and you don't have to squint at the date. Unlike cents, all nickels are and were 75% copper. So, knock...
I was talking about Pre-82 copper cents. People do hoard them, in anticipation to a payoff.
I don't remember the 25% profit, but I know there are those now who hoard copper cents in the hundreds of thousands, hoping to capitalize on the...
I am on the fence about picking up cents, mostly because of my metal detecting experience. Its no fun going to the trouble of digging up a...
