About copper rounds
Copper is an industrial metal, not a monetary/precious metal. These rounds are sold as novelty collectibles — they are not an investment in precious metals and are not IRA eligible.
Storage & care
Keep dry and handle by the edges; copper naturally develops a patina over time, which many collectors enjoy.
Pricing
Priced as a collectible/novelty, not by metal spot value.
