[QUOTE="Tom Maringer, post: 199059, member: 7033"][b]pre-'82 cents[/b] I just got a cute little sorting machine that separates zinc from copper pennies.... takes about a half-hour to sort through a whole $50 face bag. The proportion of coppers seems to be running between 10% and 20% depending on the source of the coins. The machine is an awesome thing! He's got a website at [url]http://www.ryedalecoin.com/[/url] Irecall back in '64 when the silver started to disappear I would get rolls of dimes and quarters at the bank and scan for dates. But at the time I didn't think about putting a lot of money into hoarding up common-date silver. In retrospect it would have been a decent investment. We're at the same cusp on copper. Now's the time boys. Salt 'em back or be sorry later. Tom[/QUOTE]
