Nice work on the IH!
I thought I would be raking them in when I got one on my third box. 20 boxes later... still at one! haha

Incredible find! Not bad condition for a 127 year old coin!

I don't think I've ever went down to 4 common wheats a box, but still had some bad days. I usually have streaks of good luck and then streaks of bad luck. It is never consistent. I once went on a 6 month dry spell for wheats, and then got 9 hole fillers in $45. I got a lot of 30s, including a 1935-S. Your luck will return!

Found a bowling counterstamped cent this morning in a box.

I went through my first box in a while, not spectacular, (7 wheats, 5 canadians) I have noticed that the number of canadians may be decreasing as I was averaging 9-10 a few months ago.

Not a bad bag at all! 23 wheats and an IHC? I wish I had that luck when I was searching. I've been averaging 5 wheats my last 6 boxes. Just got two more boxes today, and they will be my last cent boxes for a while. I need to take a break from them. On to nickels....

Well it was a bag so 2 boxes. 25 always seems to be the magic number of wheats I find. But I was way low on Canadian, usually it is in parity with the wheats.

just wondering why everyone talks about the Canadians that they pull? Are these collectible or valuable? I was always told that they are worthless... Did I miss something? Sorry if this is an ignorant question but I am kind of learning still.
Why do folks always keep these?

I just keep them because they are a novelty.

I keep my Canadians because they stopped minting cents in 2012
