    I can go to the bank, pick up a box, deposit zincs, sort, list, sell and ship 10,000 pennies in about an hour spread over 3 days. My average net on a 100 dollar investment is, and is 133. You woul take a 33% return in three days on any investment. The worst thing that happens is I get a box with few copper pennies.

    So you manually go thru 10,000 pennies in an hour? Damn, my eyes would get so crossed!

    A sorter that separates 10,000 copper pennies from copper-plated zinc pennies in an hour? Do they exist?

    I still value my time more than $33.00 an hour. I like my money to work for me while I'm doing something else.

    Wasn't hard to find. Pretty cool!

    Link

    Says it does 300 per minute which is 33 minutes for 10000.

    Thats the one I have but I got it second hand for 200 bucks. Mine also has some custom features which drop the pennies into tubes for easy rolling.
