The 10K is a guestimate based on a small sampling in one area. It could
be more or could be considerably less.
As well, the stuff to be collected in the spring may be rusty as heck.
Even some of the fresh stuff picked up a few days after the fall show
signs of weathering.
The fresh stuff may still fetch high prices. Time will tell.
