box of pennies today.

Nice! Those are about my averages over here.
 

Yea, im very new to this hobby. And i love it! Only been through $100 so far. But got with my bank and they have me down for 2 boxes every payday.
 

nice finds ! thats a great amount of wheats!
 

Do you guys ever find any key dates in good condition? Just curious..I've started doing pennies when the silver runs dry, its truly fun! I also check for the 1992 closed AM's!

Do you check for the 1998-2000 wide AMs?
 

I havent been looking for the wide am's. :( i think i shall start. But i had a box the other day which beat my last box. I found 49 wheat pennies. A 1989 burmuda penny. And about 7.8 lbs of copper

It takes so long to look thru them. It makes my head and eyes ache. How many should I expect to look at until I find one? I've probably looked thru a couple hundred.
 

It takes me about an hour a box. I find wheat pennies atleast every 3-4 rolls. My usual finds are about 13-16 wheats

I haven't found one yet, but I don't search cents really (maybe have searched 2-3 boxes in my CRH career).

Ok. I usually grab a box of pennies about once a month or if the bank is out of nickels. I tried to look thru two boxes worth, but it was so time consuming and fruitless. Not sure if its worth it.
 

Yea, i love steel pennies! Only have 2. But satisfited with every one i have. :) HH
