Ok, I am starting modest just to get my feet wet, so on the way home I stopped and got a $25 box of pennies. Here are the results: 398 copper pennies: Melt value: $9.55 6 Wheats (58D, 58, 57D X2, 46S, 44) 1 penny that looks like exonumia (will post photos later) 1 1946 Canada penny So, not a windfall by any stretch of the imagination but a pretty good start. I am just glad the box they gave me was not all 2012.
Good luck hunting. I just started myself. Silver hunting can be a lonely endeavor, but very rewarding.
