A while back a teller told me when I approached that she had $100 in pennies for me. "All from the same person?" I asked and she said "Yes! She said the lady told her they were from her father who had collected "for years". As I searched them, hoping to find an older collection, I found that they were mostly 60s and 70s mostly uncirculated, not old. However, about every 2nd or 3rd roll had a really nice 1943 steel in it. For them to be injected in the rolls the way they were it had to be intentional, not random. Well, the next time in the same bank the teller said she had $75 more from the same lady. They turned out to be just like the first batch. I ended up with 145 steel cents and not one wheat from any other year. Makes you wonder what people are thinking when they roll them up - to spread out the steel cents like that and keep all the copper wheat cents.
