I average 20-25% up here in Maine with bank rolls and get 10 or so wheats each weekend. I get one box a week.

Your copper find rate is low based on my numbers ...

Baltimore MD searcher ... and I have averaged 25.6% copper over my previous 10 boxes.

I never even thought about keeping track of that since I just dump anything I don't want, can't use, back in change. Copper or not.

18%, that would be a disappointing number for me, in bank rolls I get here, I usually find about 25ish%

I usually average around 25-30% in copper. I haven't really kept track but I would estimate about 3-6 wheats a box.

Wow, either I had a very lucky box for my first run last week or this bank will keep producing. Otherwise, I had a 44% copper box of $25.

I had not been keeping track of the copper percentage until my last 2 boxes, but the last 2 were 38.8% and 31.72.

OH NO - This is an ominous sign! I received a box of pennies that had already been searched and rewrapped by a copper hunter! No cents older than 1982 in there.

I'm in central California and my percentages are right with murrellington's figures.
phil5280...I had that happen to me just last week. I sure hope it was a fluke.
