    I need help figuring out what is copper #1 or copper #2 or something different from this picture. The number in the picture goes along with the number in my og post.

    At my yard all of the bare copper shown would be considered #2 at $2.55 a pound. The pic that had insulation on it would be #3 insulated at .68 cents a pound. Not worth stripping for me. Remember I said at my yard. You need to find a local yard and see what they are paying.
