You can mine GeoCoins Cheesy They are .001 diff right now, the caveat is they are 100% worthless.

Mine Primecoin when it launches tomorrow.  CPU only at launch, lots of buzz about it.  In the sea of garbage coins, this one might actually be something really special.

Try YAC or YBCoin. Your cpu is at less of a disadvantage compared to regular scrypt coins.

You can try this coin it has a very low difficulty and needs more constant miners.

Hey. If I have no other means of mining a coin besides a dual core CPU, which coin would be the best? I LOVE copperlark and with the sha3 algo I get about 2mhs on my cpu with 1 thread. Scrypt coins are much lower but im not sure which or what I should to in this regard. Scrypt-jane? Sha3? scrypt? Im stuck.

Let me know your thoughts..

Mr.Coin
