Crockett, I'm with you dude. I do at least a box of pennies a day. Yesterday was by far my best day pulling. Out of 1 box, here's an idea of what I pulled

Canadian:
37 X George VI 39-52
130 X Elizabetheth II 53-70
90 x Elizabeth II 70-80 BU

American

78 Wheats
45 Mems pre-70

Great box of pennies. The BU's are always nice. Something about a blazing red that is really nice to look at.

Good luck with your 100,000. You're gonna hit it before you know it.

Sorry for the lengthy gap in posts.
I'll update this shortly, got a little behind. I got into a nickel run, and set the pennies aside for a bit.
