Could that be Considered a 1963 Proof no S Nickel ?
Good luck Andy
Thank you Mary!
That apostrophe is horrific.
I’m sorry, I’m not an English major, lol
you have all those rolls with the word on, lol
On my penny hunts I only average 5 to 8 copper pennies per roll. And 4 or 5 wheat pennies per box.
Currently I average 8-10 coppers per roll, some boxes getting up to 12 per roll. I usually get 12-14 wheat Pennie’s per box, rarely do I get single digits in my area.
How many copper pennies are you allowed to hoard on the ship?
Because we do not travel internationally, I don’t have to worry about having more than $5 worth of Pennie’s to travel home. I’d usually go through about 3 boxes of Pennies on average, meaning I usually come home with 1200 to 1500 Pennie’s. I do however get stopped by TSA often for traveling with coins in my pack.
*Hey there Genius's...Since 2006, It is a violation of Federal Law to melt ANY US Currency down for its metal content. It is also against the law to export more than $5 in coin outside United States borders...These crimes are punishable by up to 25 years in a federal petitionary...So keep on hoarding those pennies..LOL*
Yes, that is an obvious fact, the point of hoarding is for for the moment when legislature reverses the law, and copper needs to be recalled, we will be ready. Lol
Very nice 👌❤️
That mint mark looks suspect
I can assure you it is real!
That’s not proof. More likely to be SMS (special mint set)
Nice find Andrew
Thanks Mary, have you had any luck?

Awesome find!!!
Thank you!
Nice
nice video
you actually collect those coins? I guess I do too, but I'm not wasting my time to do it
I hope you know that I don’t think I am wasting my time. Coin Collecting is a hobby and so is Coin Roll Hunting. They are hobbies that I enjoy, and am happy to take time to do. So not a waste, but an investment of time that brings me joy.
@@captaincoincollector I'm not saying your wasting your time. I just don't waste my time by going out of my daily routine to go to a bank to get coins. I get my coins by spending cash and saving the coins until I have time to look to see what I have.
very nice video

Hi Andy!
What's up? Hope all is well!
I got hooked on pennies back in 1956-57 Our neighbor , Chuck Janes ,had a donut shop . He told me every time an Indian head penny crossed his counter, he tossed it into a cigar box. He also saved Barber dimes . He said he only saved coins that weren't worn slick. I found this out one evening when I showed him my meager Indian head collection. Him and his wife, Dot would play cards with my parents. I would go around the table looking for old pennies and Indian nickels. I think back then, everyone had a few Indian head pennies stashed in a drawer someplace, just like we have old copper pennies now, and they would eventually just spend them. But , as a kid I was shocked that he would still get them in his shop. He said , "Yes." like it was no big deal. So..... I set my target date at 1920. I would only save pennies from before that date. Years later, it was only pennies before 1940. Old Chuck Janes had a cigar box under his kitchen sink level to the top with Indians and another box of Barber dimes. That was the incentive that started me saving pennies. Never bought rolls or boxes from the bank. Only went through pocket change. It's a habit I've never been able to break. Chuck also collected stamps. Another obsession he helped launch me on. He'd give me envelopes of old United States stamps. He gave me his childhood arrow head collection too [ that I still have today] He also gave me my first Gilbert chemistry set. [The bottles were all made of wood] Everyone should have a neighbor like old Chuck Janes. I'm an old man myself, now. I try to start kids off collecting.... anything. It's a sad world we live in today and what's more wholesome than a kid collecting stuff that others shun, or think it's just junk. Just my thoughts tonight........ 9:30.... past my bedtime.
Cut and clean your fingernails dude.
I'd rather collect the Lincoln on log series and odd 2006 nickels uncircumcised 1$ or so ea ..did find a 17 walker in a roll looking for silver once for the 40% halves
I don’t just collect copper, I collect silver, gold, foreign, and clad coins alike. There is so much to collect, and so much to find in this hobby. That’s why I love it
I have 46,103 normal copper pennies from 1959-1982 and another 20,002 wheat cents!!!
Wow - I never would have thought that you would find 479 Copper cents in a $25.00 face value box !
400+ is typical for all the boxes I’ve hunted in the Northeast and NY where I currently reside.
To all you folks who think hoarding copper pennies is a good idea i urge you to think this thorough to the day you may actually want to cash them in for thier copper value. If you think congress is ever going to let you bring these to a scrap yard , i very much doubt it. They will probably do exactly what canada did. If you think you're ever going to find a buyer, i doubt you could make any profit after the manual labor it takes to physically move these things and OMG heaven forbid the shipping cost. Ask yourself does this really make sense? 😊
This comment has some factual data. However, I am saving copper as not only an investment though, I coin roll hunt for the enjoyment of the hobby. Because I am already going through a box, I have the time to separate the coppers that I find. Will I make a profit from it? Who knows, time can only tell. If I can’t bring them to the scrap yard, I’m sure my grandson will spend them in 50 years as they will be passed along as relics of the past.
Im selling it also
Hello i have 1940 d but the mintmark is on top of the house my name is felipe matos four from the philipine

This is a fun hobby. But don't forget nickels that all contain 75% copper.
And 25% nickel, another coin that costs the mint more to make, a video on that soon to come!
nice
Invest in a pair nail clippers ,unless they help you open rolls.
nice video subscribe done
Thank you!
I HAVE 120 LBS SO FAR
Great start!
Exciting update! The presence of Rose number [101] embodies the spirit of collaboration within our creative garden here at Cointales. Let's keep cultivating this shared space together! 🌹🌷🌼 Thank you for being a vital part of it! 😊💖
Thanks for tuning in and sharing your videos on this hobby as well!
Glad you trimmed your nails, damn
I've no doubt copper cents will be highly desirable and become the poor man's silver. There may be a day when Cosco begins stocking copper bars along side the gold and silver ones.
Too costly to ship copper without adding a huge premium.
@@paulcoenen7918 I know they do tax it unlike gold and silver here in Arizona though many gladly purchase the big bars when they were on sale and most places would still provide free shipping if over $200 purchase. Would be nice if they removed the tax on copper, but would take some doing for sure.
Copper will become the poor mans silver. Save them while you can. I save some of the proof zink pennies aside as well. Add them to my children's little coins banks.
I like the idea of copper being the poor man’s precious metal. Though there is an abundance of copper in this world, it is heavily used. A reason why it is becoming more and more collectible
@@captaincoincollector Exactly & keep close eye on silver over demand. Will impact copper demand, obviously.
It's a fun hobby to have, especially if you have time on your hands like in between jobs or down time.
Always good to hoard copper pennies! These days, banks don't like handing out coin, especially in large amounts so I'm glad I started sorting a decade or so ago. These days I just go through my change. If your bank is cool about it and aren't out of change all the time then I'd say go for it.
Definitely had a little more trouble getting coins this decade opposed to last, but generally, I’ve always had a good stockpile. Glad to hear you are continuing to hoard. Every penny counts!
@@captaincoincollector I decided to take a break last year or so when my own bank started making me wait while they ran a back ground check on me after politely requesting 10 rolls of penny. In all fairness I believe was from the shortage during & following the lock downs. They gave me rolls straight from the mint that time.
Crushed the like button! EXCELLENT video and thank you so much for sharing!
Thank you for watching, glad you enjoyed!
kzread.infoMOSKadLXNtc?si=szIQiDLZ4788FJzq - They're coming back more & more... - I'll Barter ..?? .. .. : )
I have been saving the copper pennies for at least 15 years. I just look for them in change. I don't go to the bank and buy rolls. I have around 3500 of them.
Awesome! They add up fast!
How can you tell when they're copper???
I have 40 lbs of "trash" Cu pennies (ones that don't look AU condition or better). Locally, these days, I find coppers pose themselves at a rate of about 10-12%, and around 8 wheats/bx worth. I have a box from a bank in the Cherokee Nation I can't wait to get into, although I do have one local (Texas) box to peruse before that. Pretty good Cu % rate, not too shabby! Sounds like next time I'm up north, I should be picking up New England boxes.
Awesome, keep up the good work, currently I am at about 180 pounds and growing! I’ve hunted 33 boxes in my penny hunt and fill series with most of the boxes being from New York and I’ve averaged 16.5% coppers a box and 14 wheat Pennie’s. I hope those New England coins treat you well, you can also find some more Canadians as well!
I took my stash to coinstar. It’s awesome, you don’t have to sort or count the coins! The machine does it for you and you get a gift certificate in exchange.
No, the best time to start hoarding Copper pennies was back in 1981, but the second best time is right now. I've been keeping pennies since I was a kid, but I didn't start keeping them specifically for their Copper until I was in my mid to late 20s, which was 20 years ago. Granted, I don't search penny boxes at all, and I never have. I simply prefer to use cash, for a variety of reasons, and I always save my change. I keep all pre-'82 Copper pennies and all pre-2004 American nickels. I have 100+ pounds of Copper pennies...so probably 16,000 to 17,000+ pennies. I have about 75 to 80 pounds of nickels as well. Copper pennies are already in tradable form and will sell for above their face value already. As the dollar continues to devalue and things like Copper, Silver, and Gold continue to reflect that devaluation in their dollar denominated price rises, people will eventually locate the value they are looking for in commodities like the various monetary metals, which will include Copper and Nickel. Right now, they are being distracted with a variety of technological abstractions masquerading as money, but that will end eventually too.
I just take mine to coinstar, it’s awesome, the machine counts your coins and give you a gift certificate in exchange!
I don’t know when I started, probably in the early 2000’s. I have roughly 25,500 copper Pennie’s now! I haven’t started collecting nickels yet, though I anticipate it to be soon.
I made the huge mistake of grabbing a bag of mini oreos to eat while watching this video. When it started, I got a glimpse of the crud under his fingernails. Almost made me yak... 🤢
Thank you for the insight. Hope the mini Oreos were good
