Yes.
Thanks.
I have many thousands of nickels already due to FReeper Travis McGee's suggestion a couple years ago.
And, a big pile of scrap copper and aluminum out back.
In fact, I've made a rough calculation that 10 pre-1982 pennies are worth about 35 cents today. A Troy ounce of copper is worth about 35 cents too.
I was in the Loop Coin Shop about a month ago and they were selling 100 pre-1982 pennies in zip lock bags for $4.25 each bag.
Ping for coinage. :)
