Customer wrapped rolls are the cardboard papery rolls you buy at the store or that they will give you for free at the bank. There are different companies that roll coins for example the clear plastic rolls are rolled by Brinks and there are other companies like Dumbar, String and Son, Garda and Loomis it will say either on the roll or on the box what company rolled them. The fed does not roll coins it hands them out to Loomis to roll and Loomis rolls them and distributes them. Or at least I think thats the way its done. If you want uncirculated coins then get loomis wrapped coins. Usually dimes come in $250 boxes and nickels come in $100 boxes hope this helps.

Are asking how many $ worth of coin are in each box or how much silver is usually found?

The couple of times I did dimes jus to fill holes in my album I found 1 silver Roosevelt every other box.

Nickels used to be bad for me but the last 10 boxes have averaged 1.5 War Nickels.

The last few boxes have been a 75% mix of 2012 coins with 25% circulated but I've found 2 War Nickels per box out of those for some reason.

I was almost to the point of taking the boxes back and exchanging them but decided to give them a try anyways and am glad I did.
