I did an interesting box of pennies over the weekend. No significant finds: as usual, about 25% copper, 9 wheat, 8 Canadian. What was interesting was that every 3rd roll had a dime in it, sometimes 2. I would have said that this kind of lends credence to the claim that dimes are counted as pennies. However, the rolls were all machine wrapped, and were from a bank (Chase) that as far as I know doesn't have coin counting machines in my area. Weird.

Either way, I didn't care, as I ended up with $1.80 in dimes from a $25 penny box...
