So I have been searching boxes of pennies the last couple days. I have been buying them from this smaller bank. Each one has been CWR and they have given up far more Wheaties than I am used to. Usually, if I find 10 in a box it's been a good day. Over the past three boxes from this bank, I have pulled $2.83 in Wheaties, from a 1913-D all the way up to 1958.

I'm going to keep buying boxes from that bank as long as they let me, or until the well runs dry.

My dump bank doesn't mind being a dump bank, but they hate selling! So when I did get boxes from them, ended up with an unusually high percentage of Canadian coppers!!

Ride the wave! :occasion14:

Run it dry... found a bunch of good nickels in CWR from a local bank... ended up buying all $170 of nickels they had in the vault in 4 separate visits... found a 1917 Buffalo, 1938 D & S, and 1942-D Jeffersons, 3 War Nickels, and a batch of 5 rolls which had nothing later than 1970 (a collection dump) which included 96 pre-60s, amongst them a 1944-P.
