<p>[QUOTE=&quot;wazzappenning, post: 1003977, member: 27347&quot;]legalities aside, the mint is selling them so they are worth something. i agree however that hand sorting might not be worth it for the amount of them to be worth it. at first i thought a simple magnet would do it but no one would want those copper plated zinc cents mixed in (non magnetic). but still, when i thought of hoarding them i figured a little time with a magnet over $10000 worth gets you $23000. or even just double. as for selling them, if you have a friend at a scrap metal place, or if you put them at the bottom of a load of copper wire (theyll be mad when they see what they bought) but will re sell them rather then take a loss. coin shops dont buy them? they buy silver for melt. the guy who gets them and melts them could as easily melt these? and if youve ever been to an auto wrecker, you can see the law being broken every day. almost every car i have ever seen there has pennies in it.they all get crushed and melted.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
