Box #8. This one was a String & Son's box. Most of my other ones come from Brinks. I found 13 wheat pennies, which is the 2nd most I've ever found in one box.
1937 1942 x2 1942D 1944 1950 1955 1956 1956D 1957 x2 1958 1958D

Box 2 of 10 Copper 28.2% Wheats 6 oldest 1937 Canadian 4 oldest 1962 Coolest....1980D with really strong wood grain. Seems 1980 was a common year for wood grain cents, I have found quite a few in that year. What is really interesting is that they span both mints in that year. Anyone else notice 1980 is a common year for wood grains?

Both 1980 and 1981 seem to have several with wood grain.

Not a coin find but perhaps a bank find. Walked into a bank for the first time and asked for a box.No questions asked,had my box and out the door in five minutes.I will return!

Searched $10 in cents the other day and only found one common wheat. There were quite a few early 80's BU cents, some decent reds from the 60's and 70's and even a red 1959. Here's a few of them:  The one at the very top is a 1984D. Far from special, but nice to find what seems to be an untouched coin..here's the close up:

@RicardoCody, nice 1935! Here are the results of my latest activity: Source: $13 of Penny Rolls in white paper wrappers, Chase Bank, Nelson Rd, LA Wheat penny Finds: 1949 1953 1958D Wheats were all in poor shape. Only about 50 coppers pulled from this batch, majority of coins were in poor condition with calcification on surface. Water fountain haul?

At the bank now, sitting here waiting for them to bring out a box of pennies and dimes... I look down, right there 1960 Washington quarter! Let's hope the two boxes I'm about to get are as lucky!!
