Back again with a 68c roll!
I was at the bank yesterday and decided to get more rolls even though I have half a box to go through.
Glad I did because as I sat in the car sampling 5 rolls, I found wheats in 4 of them.
This part of Fl. doesn't produce many wheats in rolls. I might get 1-2 in a box. Slim Pickens!

Here is the best roll of that small sample.
It had two dimes (89 & 65), 5 wheats (46, 47, 55, 55D, & 58), a 1970 Canadian cent, 11 more coppers, and only 5 shield cents!, with 2019 being the newest.

I have high hopes for these rolls. So many wheats and a pair of dimes lead me to think these are old rolls that were not picked over by another collector. An eagle-eyed collector would not have left dimes in a roll.

Previously, I've come across rolls with high concentration of memorial cents but believe they may have been a dump since nothing interesting turned up.

Lately the rolls only have 5-7 coppers per roll (10% -15%). The # of coppers have been steadily declining in recent years.
But these rolls have me eagerly looking forward to the search again.
Anyways, enough yacking. Here's a couple of images.

Not a bad mix. Is that '55 P a poor man's doubled die? They often come with nicely cracked skulls.

Nope.
It does appear to have a retained struck though foil in the hair above the forehead though. It's 3/4 of a rectangle and not linear like a lamination.
I'll post an image later.

I did just find a 1988 P DDO-004/1DO-005, which I'll add later as well.

Thank you Mr. Moderator, whoever you are for fixing my boo-boo on the variety number. That was a lot of work in quite a few places.

No sweat. Okay, a little sweat. I almost missed where I quoted you.

That was the one I thought might get overlooked. Very well done.

Well, it's been almost exactly two months since the last 59c roll, but here it is.

Nothing to speak of in the roll aside from the extra dime & it's kind of nasty.
Hopefully you're finding the motherload and are on
