40 more rolls to go.
I'll take this time to answer some of the questions about the unopened bank box. The story goes.... A bank teller found that a lot of the penny boxes were all wheats. She went to a local coin shop and asked if they wanted to buy them. These are modern day N.F. String & Son wrappers. My guess is someone dumped a literal semi load back into the bank and when they re rolled them a few boxes were filled with double ended wheat Enders. I did find a 1959 so far in the mix. Hope that helps explain the box.

One 59, Send em back.  I'd love to get a hold of a box like that.

Interesting backstory and certainly believable. Stranger things, etc...
It'll be fun to watch the results from the rest of the rolls.
