They have simple machines you can make or buy to sort coins. You can sort real copper pennies from the modern pot metal ones. You can sort silver coins from modern ones too. Its cool.
You can go to the bank and just buy lets say $1k in dimes. Sort them in your free time for the silver ones, because there will be some silver ones in that. Then roll up all the left over dimes and deposit them back into your bank account. You lost nothing but time and gained some silver coins.
You can do the same thing to get copper pennies. A real copper penny is now worth more in copper than the money it represents.
The U.S. i believe will eventually ditch the penny. If they do that you will be free to melt them down for their copper. Some people will be rich overnight. Im not joking. Some people have storage units full of copper pennies.
