A little generous there IMHO. A box of $25 face value coins here in the US would put out maybe ~25% copper yield. So, four boxes of pennies would maybe yield $25 copper roughly. I picked up on this auction because the seller does not want to say how much face value the coins are. I think we are seeing that Canadian coins are getting way over face on Ebay in many cases for no other reason than people think they are rare. So, don't toss the Canadian coins back into the dump pile sorters. You can probably find a buyer on Ebay, especially if you have cents to sell in a bulk mystery lot.
