leigh white Posted January 16, 2020 Share Posted January 16, 2020 Emptied all my loose change into the machine at the Supermarket after a year of filling old jugs and vases with copper. Managed to get £ 105-01 back, without a pound or fifty pee in the haul. Nowt worse than a pocket full of copper. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure pubs are arsed about 1p and 2p coins now are they. also, counting out over £100 in coppers, and then bagging them up would be a right Ballache. We'll worth 10% I reckon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaveTheRave Posted January 19, 2020 Share Posted January 19, 2020 I've never had to pay for change for any business. The bank usually give me small amounts without any problem. If I need hundreds I just need to give them 24 hours notice. Still no charge though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

e2e4 Posted January 19, 2020 Share Posted January 19, 2020 "copper" coins discolour faster than anything nowadays. im sure its rust. silver coins seem hardier. "pennies arent worth nowt" would be a harder lie to push if they were better coins. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Up to 1992 they were mostly copper which tarnished quickly enough anyway. Since then copper plated steel so yep, probably rusting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
