Picked up a handful of customer wrapped rolls yesterday and in those 8-10 rolls, pulled a nice JFK Counterstamp and belive it or not, a 1961 Roosevelt dime! First silver dime I've found in circulation in I dont know how long, and to find it while searching a penny roll!

Someone cashed in their copper collection! 1/2 way through a bag and I have more coppers than Zincolns! That is pretty rare for me in this area.

Awesome - enjoy. There could be some better dates or better condition or errors in there. Be sure to check. Those are truly enjoyable boxes to collect. Congrats
I have had a few boxes run in the 60-80% copper range. One of those boxes us where I got about 250 wheats.

The most wheaties I found in a box was 133. (I found about 13 wheaties.)
I finished my bag and and there was still more copper than zincs.
I also started another bag and am coming along with a fair amount of coppers and wheaties. (About 9)

Well my streak of getting low-producing boxes continues. I searched three boxes over the last two days, and my combined results (I, for the most part, only keep wheats or older, "S" mints, any interesting ones like proofs or counter-stamped, etc, and foreign...don't mess with the copper vs. zinc or anything) are as follows: U.S. - 1936-D, 1941-S, 1944-D, 1945-D, 1951-D, 1957-D Canadian - 1977, 1984, 1985 (blunt "5") I used to average 2-3 times this many wheats and Canadian in just one box, and this took me there boxes to get this amount. I wonder what the deal is lately? Oh well, I will be happy in the knowledge that I rescued these.

Went through a box yesterday and ended up with 13 wheats and about as many canadian cents. Highlight was a 1930d wheatie, though not a hole filler.
also 2 dimes and a 1970 bermuda nickel with a boar looking beast on it.

1 box finished: Approximately 565 1960-1979 (22.6%) 10 2009s 10 Canadian 8 S memorials 5 40s 6 50s 1953 S and these:  The 1991 looks like grease to me. Am I right? It'd be my first. The 68s is a hole filler for me -- I'm trying to collect all nice toned coins.  This is my first great looking wheat.
