Bought two boxes last week, and about to start box two. Box 1 gave me a bit more variety than the last one:
5 S-mint LMCs (4 1969, 1 1970)
4 Canadian (1965, 1987, 2x 2001 in great condition)
2 wheats (1946-S, 1953-D)
1 Jiao (Chinese)
Not bad.

I looked through a box a couple of weeks ago and have been remiss not reporting sooner. Nothing too exciting but I did find 14 common date wheats (a beat up 1928 was the oldest), 10 Canadians, 4 2009's and my first couple of 2015's as well as two decent examples of 1960D small date. About 29% of the box was copper. My brother tells me the percentage of copper in the boxes he buys in Chicago is less than 10%. Quite a difference. Four of the wheats I found were cleaned on the right side of the obverse. The odd thing is they were in four different rolls. The photo doesn't make the cleaning as obvious as it is to the naked eye.  |

Numbers look right Bucky - too bad on the cleanings. The copper % you obtained is the same here in CT (at least in my area).

Got 2 more boxes of pennies, hoping for great finds.
I live in Chicago suburbs and I find lots of copper in the boxes.

Box two lacked the international flair of Box 1, but rewarded me with a few more coins:
4 Canadian: 1961, 1867-1992, 1974, 1996
3 S-Mint LMCs: 1970-S, 2x 1969-S - one of which is still red
8 wheats: 1956-D, 1951-D, 1942-D, 1951, 2x 1957-D, 1937-D, 1946-D
