dp, I know how you feel. With my averages, if i ever picked up a box (i do bags and rolls) Thats the kind of averages i'd get. I guess i'll keep lookin. But just think... if my averages were as good as some peoples here, i'd have 112 wheats instead of 56 right now! ;D just have to accept my averages though. :P

What are your averages for getting wheat pennies? I was blown away when i read about people who get them in every other roll... my average is one in every 7 to 10 rolls.

I am at 6.3 Wheats per box this year.

That's what I was thinking. Electronova, if you really average 1 IH every 5 boxes I'm moving into your area next week! :laughing7:

OK.....Found a bag of pennies and halfway through it we are at 28 wheats, one 1943 Steel, 11 Canadians with a 1942 and a euro and panama penny. Bags are the way to go!!!
