I have found 4 IHC as well as a V nickel (dateless) as well as a French 50 centime from 1800's ( size of a dime) and a dateless Victoria dime (1860-1901)

I am found these all in Canadian rolls and I hunt between $2000 and $3000 dimes /week

i have done about a dozen boxes and have about 4 rolls of wheats. the trick to finding older coins is looking through LOTS of coins and being in the right place to get the right box/bag/roll at the right time.

It's a myth that LWC's are disappearing, as soon as someone pulls one from circulation, someone else spends another. How do you think we still find those things?
Do not confuse disappearing with disappeared. The fact that I am finding them less often than in the past tells me that they are disappearing. The fact that I still find them tells me that they have not disappeared.

I found 2 1882 Indian heads last week. I guess it's just luck.
