It's been a while, but if memory serves @<SLV> may have a story about that. Maybe he'll share it if he sees this.

Lulz... They spent months combing through the stash to find any valuable numismatics before posting an ad to sell the lot for melt value to a sucker who would be responsible for taking delivery.

Im 2006.... At any given moment I had $100k in pennies in my warehouse. We were recycling 100 tons per month.

On the Real Cent forum, there used to be a guy whose handle was something like HoardCopperByTheTon. He passed a few years ago from what I understand. I wonder if this hoard was his.

From the comment section: They are from California. They might have tons of pennies but they have no common cents.
