Good question ! I average 4 halves per box and two dimes per box. I have given up on the idea of getting a dream box, and large amounts of halves rolled are always dumps in my experience.
Because I am limited to a few days a month on this hobby I have to make best use of my time.
Half boxes have to be ordered and are a pain in the neck to cash in. Dimes are readily available and are easy to unload.
So I am going to stop ordering halves.
What I'll be doing in the future is bank hop for halves,picking up loose and rolls where there are only a couple, and pick up dime boxes on the way.
