Message:: [QUOTE="tlasch, post: 1035035, member: 27272"]Buying them off ebay and using a machine takes the fun out of it. I work at a call center (though I look weird) I go through rolls at work. And If I have a find of the day I show my coin collecting buddy's at work <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> Do whatever makes you comfortable, always do the "Drop test" on 1982 pennies to be certain, you will hear that lovely ring as opposed to that flat drop sound. I can remember an instance where I bought $50 in pennies from the bank and unbelievably a roll searcher deposited all of those rolls not to long before I picked them up, I could tell because they were all in the same exact cheap dollar store penny rolls and they all had nothing but 1982 for the copper pennies. I think out of the entire $50 face I found one roll in copper 1982 pennies because that searcher either was too lazy or took pre 1982 to heart. Other times you might get lucky, like the day I dread when my wife made me deposite an entire back of <=1982 pennies ($10 Face) because we needed meat for spaghetti for dinner that night. I sadly got paid the next day.[/QUOTE]
