Okay, here’s the Deal, for the Record. Actually there are several deals. Here they are:
You can send for a sales kit for street work, group work, door to door, business to business or trunk show kiosk.
Sales kits come in many different forms. I can provide a combination sales system that will produce fast results with a good crowd. Or:
I will search a bank box and remove the worthless coins, then send you the shiny results.
I keep nothing I find; it all gets passed along to you in the canvas money bag I send to you after the initial search.That’s all you get — the rest is totally up to you.
You will have to actually search the coins — all I do is remove the coins that it’s pointless to even check out. You get NO junk, all good!
How much is this gonna cost ya???
Hmm. Somehow, I had a suspicion you might ask me that. Well, fair enough: The deal is that you send $50. I buy two boxes of U.S. in-circulation pennies at $25 per box. I pay for the $5 a gallon gas to get to the bank and back. I pay for the electricity, heating, cooling, food to sustain the searcher, etc. etc. etc.
For this, I get nothing.
You, however, get the results. That means every single coin of any interest goes directly back to you.
I do NOT search the coins! I merely sort them by date and mint-mark, with a gradient set of conditions and states related to the coin and to the date of issue.
In short, I keep the shiny ones and throw away the junk. This includes the yucky green guys, the almost disintegrated zinc messes that pass through the hand-rolled wrappers like alien blood through the hull of the average Klingon cruiser’s bulkhead wall.
But I digress. In plain English, you get all the coins that are worth looking at from the first box, and I get the rest.
We’re not talking something on the order of $40 an hour for a grading service (which I emphatically am NOT).
So the sum total will have been around $30 to $40 hard cash minus your Near Perfect Coin Bag “rebate”, which will generally run anywhere from 800-1200 coins, which translates to eight to twelve bucks back in nice coins. You will probably find a nice number of 1960, 1960D and 1970s, some of which are, for me, small date. I get a few a night up to a whalloping 85 of them on last night’s search. I haven’t checked them for small dates and mint errors yet, but I’ll let you know how it turns out.
See You At The Top!!!
