I also bought a 5000 bag of wheats that had great coins in it. I paid $90 for it back then. I started saving pre-1982 back in 1989 just because it seemed like a good idea.

Being uncirculated, they may be worth as much as .05 cents or perhaps more. Just check with a dealer.

If so I am looking for bags of 5000 each. I would like to make a deal with you to search through the wheats if you are not a collector and then return what I do not pull out. send ma a mail and let me know what you think. ron do you have any pennies that you have purchased that are wheat?

It is getting harder and harder to find a hoard of pennies that has not been cleaned out of the good dates. If anyone has a volume of pennies prior to 1940 I would pay .03 cants for them....if they have not been searched. speaking of pennies, i collect certain dates mostly prior to 1940, not for the copper but for certain dates that are rare.

A dollar isn't worth what it used to be. But 154 pennies will always give you a pound of copper no matter how low the value of the dollar goes. You talk about the potential profit from sorting one ton of copper pennies out of five tons of coins as if it's a money-losing proposition, when in fact those of us who are hoarding copper pennies are simply using our time to do something that will give us a long-term safety net, an investment in tangible copper that will not lose its copper content. We could spend our time doing things that won't have any sort of tangible return--watching TV, engaging in other hobbies, spending mindless hours surfing the Internet--but we choose instead to focus on what will bring us a greater financial return. Come hang out with us at http://realcent.forumco.com and see what we're all about. You just might start thinking differently. ;) Copper hoarding CAN work and IS working among many of us who realize that paper money has no inherent value and is gradually and certainly losing value.
