It's not really the Base Metals that make a Coin valuable... I figure once we're on the other side of the Reset, about 5 Copper Coated Zinc Pennies will buy One Pound of Copper... So, it's not the Metal, it's the Coins Face Value and what its' backed by that counts... In other words, I don't know if it would be a good buy or not, based on what you told me...lol...
