Well, I've been lurking lately but after reading about everyone else's finds, I finally picked up $48 (the bank didn't have $2 more) in cents. All were customer wrapped rolls. There were a lot of copper cents from the 70s and 80s, I got some of the 2009 cents that I missed while in the Philippines. I also found a 1996 Canadian cent and the following wheaties:
1957D x2 1951
and
1927S - surprisingly good shape for n 83 year old coin.

would this be a weak strike on the left ?

I would say it's more like weakness due to over polished die. Maybe it still qualifies as "weak strike", I don't know. Look at those polishing marks in the fields.

FINALLY! Just pulled my first LP4.  And it's a D mint - go figure. Gutkowski - that '73-S is awesome!

Quote: nice '73! like a mirror I'm pretty sure that's a proof and not a biz strike. What's odd is that it's not cameo?!

I did a Brinks box last week - nothing special. 13 wheats, 3 Canadians from the 1970s and 1980s. I did have a 1940 and a 1942 in the same roll though.

I was wondering if it was a proof.

No doubt a proof. Hey Thad, would Verdi-something help that spot on the lapel? Jim

 How many of you guys count each roll? I am just curious as to the accuracy in the count of a box. Jim
