One of my banks (the only branch) that I buy bags from calls me to come & pickup 1-dime & 3-penny bags Saturday morning. Yes I want the dimes ( usually get about 4-5 Rosie's in bags), but I'm more concerned about the 3 penny bags. Who knows if these could all be loaded with coppers, wheats, or years & years of a piggy bank. Or worse yet , that they are some copper hoarders dump. I'll let you all know the outcome, positive I hope.

Copper hoarder dump would be great. Most don't care about varieties.

Finished the dime bag; produced 5-Rosie's. I hope to go thru at least 1 or 2 bags of cents this week since I'll be light on dime boxes to check out.

Was able to search bag #1 of 3 cent bags. Nothing super special: about 15-18% copper, 24-wheaties (2 in the 30's, the rest in 40-50 range), plus 2 clad dimes. Hope to check bag #2 tonight.

Finished bags #2 & #3 of cents. About 15-18% copper, about 35 wheats between the two, oldest were 1913-d (good), 1918-p, rest were in the 40-50's. No mother loads, maybe another time.
