<p>[QUOTE="Blissskr, post: 1329183, member: 34882"]I buy penny boxes ($25 50 rolls per box) and have been saving the 81 and prior/82 with scale verified weight and I'd say roughly 30% of every box I get is still copper pennies at this point. I'd like to think they will be around for awhile longer. However, with the big commercial operations getting started into this now with big expensive automatic sorting machines this doesn't bode well for them lasting a long time. And if any of the bills in the house/senate pass that have provisions to change the make up of the penny/nickel to steel I would expect them to go even faster.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
