How many boxes before you could complete the 2002-2011 NIFC P&D set

I'm trying to get a gauge for how common NIFC 1/2s are. I know everyone says that if you keep them all, you will end up with a ton and they aren't worth more than face. I get that, I'm just kind of curious if my last couple boxes are normal. I'd guess that in the last two boxes, I got 30 and 45 in each. In the first 5 boxes I did, I think I found 1 total.

I'm just curious if I hit the equivalent of a sliver vein of NIFC's, or if my first 5 boxes were the exception. I think I now have all the 2002 - 2011 P&D's. Obviously many multiples of some. I also found one 2007S which was my first S of any kind. Just wondering what this means.

I plan to fill a couple books so I'm glad I found them, but also wonder if I'll be swapping them out with better quality ones in the near future do to them being so common. Thanks all. Hope you had better luck than me. My box was a skunk (-:

Sounds abnormally high to me. I feel like I see 1-3 NIFC/box pretty regularly.

I just sold a 02-11 P&D set on eBay for a little profit. I've got a bunch of extra multiples (some x3, x4 or x5 extras), but not quite a complete 2nd set yet.

I've been through the equivalent of 30-35 boxes, as a single data point.

For me, it's another thing to look for in halves to keep it interesting, especially I find very few silvers.
