So I went through a few more rolls and came up with a '72 MDO, a couple '70 S and a nice '46 wheat. Being on the east coast, I never broke the habit of keeping all S minted coins. They used to be an extremely rare find years ago.

I only got halfway through the box when I got too busy to open more rolls. I did find a few more wheats and Canadian cents. Then a short stint in the hospital. Just started back up tonight with them and decided I wanted to open a roll with 2 shiny enders from the 2nd box instead of continuing the first box hoping for some 2025s (the 2nd box has many shiny ender rolls). All I found were 20 2025 cents.

First Box done now and not much to note from it other than a couple 2023 DDRs and a few 2025 cents. Sure I found about a dozen more well circulated wheat cents. The box went ice cold after such a good start. Meanwhile, this guy I know who is just getting into collecting (and followed TikTok people until he had a rude awakening at a coin show) was able to get a box from his bank and hit at least a partial coin dump. He showed me 2 very nice coins - 1909 VDB and 1898 IHC - that he found in the box and then a tray with about 2 rolls of nearly uncirculated wheat cents. He still had about half the box to go yet. Something to be said for beginner's luck. I tend to get everyone's throwbacks.

About a quarter way into the 2nd box and am 102 2025 cents just from the boxes so far. Also, added an 1985 RIDB and a couple early 2000s BoC DDRs.

Is getting bank boxes of pennies still an issue for some of you? Fortunately, doesn't seem difficult for me! But, to be safe, I have been stockpiling them, anyway!
