I used to CRH here and there over the past several years. I bought $25 in CWR from a bank earlier this week. Pulled $5.84 in pre 82 copper, 3 wheats and 1 copper Canadian. Also found three clad dimes as well. I have another box waiting to be done as well. I usually pulled more wheats than that. I hope they arent all gone. LOL

My daughter and I just sorted $50 worth of hand-rolled and found about 20-2009's, 18 wheats and about three-quarters copper. I'm not a copper hoarder so we threw those and the 2009's back. She's going to be the next collector in the family (8 y.o.), can't get my boy away from Xbox...good luck in the search.
 

Yea , I hoard the copper myself. I also like pulling wheats. Me and my wife pulled over 100 wheats from a $25 box one time. I think I made a thread about it a year or so ago. I like searching pennies and nickels myself. I also go through a lot of quarters due to filling the newspaper boxes in the morning.

Not a bunch really. Sometimes I go a month or two and dont find any. I probably look through $200 or so in quarters a week. Once I have found 2 in one day. They are tough to find. I would say I average 5 to 6 a year honestly just from my newspaper job.
 

I'm am going to start saving copper myself.

I think it may be a good idea in the long run. I roll my copper back up and put them in the boxes I get from the bank. I have a little over $100 face in copper pennies so far. It doesn't take long to get a bunch.
