<p>[QUOTE="Jeepfreak81, post: 3021942, member: 93888"]I know it's not super exciting for most people to get 15 lbs of circulated coins to go through but I still have folders with empty spots in them and plan to key my eyes out for some things as I go through. My grandmother gave me these to go through, she uses quarters and the rest goes into jars. This is about 3 or 4 years worth. I sorted them by denomination last night and ended up with 4.325 lbs of nickels, 3.647 lbs of dimes, and 10.469 lbs of pennies. Plus a handful of other coins, Canadians I spotted during the quick sort, a few quarters, and a Susan B, plus I pulled any wheats I happened to spot during sorting.</p><p><br /></p><p>Now I need to get a list together of things to look for while I sort (aside from filling my folders). I'm still waiting for my 2018 redbook to arrive (the post office lost the first one). Anyway, just thought I'd share what'll be keeping me busy for a while.</p><p><br /></p><p>Also, anyone have any quick reference resources for key dates to keep an eye out for aside from silver obviously. Any reason to keep pre 1982 copper Lincoln memorials for the copper?</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="https://flic.kr/p/GZtjGG" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://flic.kr/p/GZtjGG" rel="nofollow"><img src="https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4779/26904641928_5ff15fc088_z.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></a></p><p><br /></p><p><a href="https://flic.kr/p/22n54MU" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://flic.kr/p/22n54MU" rel="nofollow"><img src="https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4783/38963488930_5c72b22d42_z.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></a>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
