I'm confused - are these different than going to the bank and trading $975 for 97,500 pennies?

If you go to the bank you will get non copper pennies. These are all copper pennies and the copper value in each is close to 2 cents each, further, there may be wheat pennies in these that are valued between 3 and 4 cents each and additionally, earlier minted pennies may have numismatic values above the value of copper in these pennies which were all minted prior to 1982.

I learned something - thanks. So what is the year cut-off for copper pennies?

1981 and earlier are alll copper, 1982 and forward are all non copper pennies. Wheat pennies were minted until 1958, forgot when they began.

Began in 1909. Look up the value of an 1909 S VDB penny. One on eBay just sold today, Sunday at 2:57PM with a $131 bid
