Average war nickel finds per rolls?

Wow. You guys are way out of my league. I wish I had the time to search that many nickels. I have searched 44 rolls (not much, I know) and I have found 2 so far. I guess I am not doing too bad.

When I was young and stupid (as opposed to being old and stupid), I'd go to the bank and get $30 or so in nickels, take them over to the counter to look thru, replace the ones I pulled, and swap them for others. I might go through $200 in a day.

Eventually they told me they'd sell or trade all I wanted, but I had to sort them at home.

I posted this on another topic a few minutes ago. If you go to a credit union, they might have a coin counter. if they do, their customers bring in massive amounts of horded coins and they dont have to roll them. Mine does. Ask then for a bag of nickels they are about to send to the federal reserve because they have excess coins. You are going to have better luck finding some war nickels in there then rolled coins coming from the federal reserve back to the banks. trust me.

I am pretty new as well, but my average seems to be 1 per box as well...had my first skunk on my last box.

I find one per box.
