I just finished up a $25 box of pennies from the bank and have made a chart detailing how many of each mint and year I have found, including Wheat, Canadian etc. The idea was to see how many pennies I went through in order to find a particular type. On the chart, I have the following:

• Year (Mint)

• Quantity (how many I found inside the box)

• Coin Frequency (how many pennies, on average, I went through to find a particular coin).

• Roll Frequency (how many rolls I went through, on average, to find a particular coin).

That's interesting. It would be interesting as well to see how these stats stand up to repeated CRHing of boxes. I wonder which trends would show to be consistent and which ones would change.

I barely have enough time to look at the date on every coin I find in a roll.

I lucked out on my struck through debris Kennedy half as the reverse was up and I had to flip the coin over to read the date and my mind was quick enough to say "go back 2 coins and recheck that one"

I wonder what else I have missed over the last few years.

Great stats! I may have to do this with my next box. From the boxes I've done, that is a crazy amount of Canadians. I'm lucky if I find 3-4.

Interesting analysis. I barely have enough time to quickly run through a cent box just to find wheats! Great stats.
