How many boxes did it take for You to find an Indian head?

None found in the wild yet...four more boxes being delivered tomorrow! Maybe this will be the time to find one:-)

I've searched probably ~50-75 boxes and have found 3 Indian cents, all common 1900s. Oldest Lincoln: 1909 (not vdb). A few better dates: 1913d, 1931d. Found 1 1970s small date. Best cent find: 1972 doubled die many years ago.

I've searched over 1,067,100 pennies (426 boxes equivalent) all by hand and have found 13 Indian heads (1891(1), 1895(2), 1899(1), 1900(2), 1901 (1), 1902(1), 1904(1), 1906(1),1907(3)). Two of those were in the same CWR roll. I've also found 7,036 wheat cents, 6 proofs, and an 1858 flying eagle cent. Good luck!

I've found more IHP's in cent rolls when I visited CANADA than in cent boxes in AMERICA.
I'd say 1 IHP in 150 boxes for me.
