<p>[QUOTE=&quot;midtncoin, post: 2914195, member: 89569&quot;]Just curious.....&nbsp; I&#039;m not intending to steer the thread off onto a tangent and I do NOT want to ignite a copper good/bad investment war (that&#039;s been argued <i>ad naseum </i>in other threads), but I&#039;ve noticed multiple times in this thread, and in others, where folks have mentioned pulling out the pre-82 copper cents from rolls.&nbsp; Is there a <i>numismatic</i> reason for doing this?&nbsp; I.e., is there some thinking that as the older cents disappear from circulation, they will become harder to find and thus worth a few cents in bulk (like buying wheaties at 3 cents each in bags of 100)?&nbsp; Or is the whole &quot;pull copper out of rolls&quot; like pulling pre-60&#039;s jefferson nickels (they&#039;ll never be worth more than a nickel but they&#039;re old so they&#039;re worth holding on to) ????</p><p><br /></p><p>I pull wheaties and pre-60 jeffersons out of rolls (and any obsolete or foreign)-- not because they will ever be valuable but just because I like the thrill of the hunt.&nbsp; Are coppers the new wheaties?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
