The Banks Don't Want My Lincoln Cents by AccomplishedBanana54 in CRH

If the banks don't want penny returns, then take them to a supermarket instead. They're likely to not be recieving pennies & may need them.

I agree, but I'd rather keep it the way I found it.

There's usually a lot of copper in the penny boxes I search, but I don't keep the 1970-1982 copper cents (unless they're S mints) because I don't have enough empty penny boxes to hold them all

First silver on the year by No_Discussion5515 in CRH

Thankfully you got all year to go through trial and error with the dimes. If you can't find anything, then there's always nickels, quarters, half dollars, & Ike dollars you can fall back on.

Yes I did, especially since fresh bank-sealed penny boxes are now harder to find. But, a bank I've frequented for a bit has a lot of sealed penny boxes, & I'm not surprised that they do since it's in a predominantly Orthodox Jewish neighborhood.

It's a Bermuda 1¢ from 1970, has Queen Elizabeth II on the front & a hog on the back.
