interesting article in this months lost treasure magazine

[silvercop]

well as i sit here reading my monthly issue of lost treasure i have run up on another article about coinroll hunting. as if there is not enough articles about it already. on page 24 there is an article titled prospecting for pennies. it tells in detail about the copper content and the profits that can be made. it also goes into detail about the ryedale. also mentions coinflation.com and the other coin roll forum realcent. it also mentioned the user names of some of the members on realcent. i hate to see articles like this but i am glad that they focused on pennies.

 

[Hi Ho Silver!]

People like to talk. Some like to brag. Others like to keep low keyed. We would be better off with the low keyed from now on.

the way my silver finds have been around here i am thinking of cranking my ryedale up and doing pennies myself

I thought of writing that article a year ago, but decided to NOT write it becuase of the competition it would bring. I guess they got someone else to write it for them. :-(

wish i could afford one of those rydales =P

My bank buys unlimited coins and allows me to pick em up casually. Needless to say id be pulling boxes as fast as the machine could take em =)

wonder how long it will be before somebody writes an article about us and this board in a magazine?

Coin Talk has had articles on coin roll hunting. I saw members of the coin community forum talking about it. Trust me, this hobby isnt a secret. While I dont advocate spreading the word through articles, newspapers, ect. people out there are doing as much or more than members here on tnet are doing. I view it as get it while you can because its going to be gone soon enough.

It has already been done. A couple years ago, in the same treasure magazine. Actually, if I am correct, I believe that the author of the article has responded to this thread. I think it mentioned LJ and some others who had spectacular finds. He got a lot of negative comments from this board that were unwarranted.

I've toyed with the idea of doing cents. I'd really like to do a massive amount of nickels not for the silver or oldies,but for a solid box of 2009's. They are still going for good money on E-Bay. The only problem is that I would go blind looking for the old ones anyway.

Yes, it already happened. And yes Bonnie (LJ) was discussed in the article, plus a few other people that were new at the time to the board. The article received a great response from the magazine and they wanted more articles on CRH. It even was on the bottom of this page for almost a YEAR, as a highlighted W&E T article for all to see. But the feedback here was terrible, and people didn't want it written because of the competition it could and possibly did cause. So the second article (about pennies and the Ryedale) was not written. And the third one, a follow up on halves, was also shelved. I truly believe that the freidnships I have developed here are worth more than an article or two that would have hurt some people here. So they were shelved.

The negative comments were much worse through PM's than the ones placed publicly on the board. LOL. But thank you detect4au for your comment. Oh, and it was Western and Eastern Treasure for that article, not Lost Treasure. Although both magazines were interested in the article.

Blind as a bat for reading but my shooting eye is as good as it ever was

silvercop - can you or anyone send me that article on the pennies. Beside my daughter and i doing halves, we do dimes and pennies. Thankfully the cost of the Ryedale's are fairly high, or there would be a ton of people doing it. i am curious as to what is said in the article. we go thru upwards of 20 boxes weekly, pull the copper, then check for wheats. Since December have over 800 lbs of coppers, and 25 lbs of wheats.

 

[silvercop]

i would send it to you if i could but i don't have a scanner to scan the article. i also have had several pm's requesting it. one guy said in a pm that he went to the magazine's website but could not access the article for free and only could get an order form to pay for it.
the article is written by john minges if you want to try a google search on him. the article also has 5 pictures 2 of them show the ryedale.

 

[silvercop]

sure do wonder how many orders ol andy has gotten for new ryedale machines since this article came out

I wonder if one day there will one day be a coin shortage like the one in Argentina. Great story if anyone reads it. People there hoard all coins. People there would rather give you extra money in paper money than in coins. They have suffered from hyperinflation.

I wonder if our debt continues to go up and of course the government not wanting to cut programs or raise taxes, we will go into inflation. It's inevitable. As soon as the economy rebounds, copper will be back up to $4.00/lb and silver back to $20/oz. Save your coins.

I seriously have my doubts about that. This is going to take multiple generation to work out if at all.

There will be no economic rebound period; what will be is a total State economy- the Gov will run everything.
