Hi, I am known as WildBill and what I do is roll search American pennies and Canadian pennies and nickels. I have started to keep track of what I search to help me stay focused, I have searched 10's of thousands of rolls in the past 10 years and trying not to get burnt-out.

The following information is the start of American pennies. What I'm tracking is American vs Canadian and the break-down by composition and basic designs.

I hope someone else can get some value out of my time and feel free to use the information any way you see fit.

Column "D" is latest data entry date and column "C" will be all data collected to date.

WildBill, I must say you are dedicated. I personally got burnt out on cent searches. Good luck and I hope you find some great treasures!

Wow, I thought I was the only one sick enough to do stuff like this. I'm glad I'm not alone!

Nice way of keeping track. I don't have the patience to count the copper vs. zincoln tally, but I do record the year and mm of the wheaties and Canadians I find.

I also track data from the boxes I open. Mostly by the decade and and composition. Here is a sample of how I keep track. Each box has 50 rolls and each roll is tracked. I have about three years of this data.
