Wow, that's a lot of searching. Nice finds!

Btw, how many hours did it take you to search through all that?

 

[GMan00001]

Wow, that's a lot of searching. Nice finds!

Btw, how many hours did it take you to search through all that?

Around 14-15 hours

approx 30 minutes per $50 in pennies, $100 in nickels, or $500 in dimes

$500 in quarters is faster....maybe in the 15 minutes per range.

the half dollars I also error searched which adds time.
