    Coin Box Finds

    Hello there!

    Does anyone know what the average amount of keepers out there? I am new to this and so far I have found these:

    2 Penny Boxes = 0 IH 5 1910's, 10 1920-30's, and 32 1940-50's. About 800 copper pennies and 2 canadian pennys.

    3 dime boxes = 0 keepers

    4 quarter boxes = 0 keepers also

    Half dollars were hard to get and I managed to get 15 rolls from my local bank. Had 4 rolls of MS-60 and above Kennedy clads and a 1969 and a 1970 D. Somehow the 70 D looks very shiny compared to the 69, does anyone know why?

    (forgot to add nickels, went through 2 boxes to find 6 war nickels, 1 buffalo, and 38 pre-1959 Jefferson's (excluding war nickels).

    Your cent boxes rocked hard !!! You copped a 70-D Kennedy on your first day out

    took me years to snag one of those ! Argentium.

    There's a coin roll hunting sub forum towards the bottom of the main page. I'm not sure what the averages are, but I know you've found more Wheaties that I have lately, but I dig for them.

    Cool, I got answers very fast. Just wondering what people out there could find inside these boxes because the dimes and quarters did not yield anything. Going to get pictures of the 70-D soon. For the pennies, should I continue to get some more? It seems like a good idea. I think my bank gets them from Loomis.
