Well after a bit of a break I decided to get back in the saddle.  I did $25 in Cents and $40 in Nickels all customer handrolled.

 The Cents produced only 9 wheats (oldest 1928), almost solid roll of BU 1968-D (was missing 2), and 57% Copper.


 The Nickels produced 43 pre 60's, which is a high number for the amount went through.  No special dates, however, quite a few S mints.

Well not bad for my first ride back after my break, now on to the dimes and quarters, hopefully silver awaits.  thumbsup

57% copper.  That's pretty awesome.  Good job.

Man, if I could get 57% copper, I'd dedicate hours a day to doing it.  :-)

Yea,  57% is quite unusual and a first for me.  Imagine if silver came like that  Huh  I thought there would be more wheats than that because it was definately someones old stash.  The roll of BU 68-D's was also a first.  41 years old, all in the same roll, and look like they were just minted.  Thanks for the comments.  thumbsup
