Me and my wife just got through hunting through a box of String pennies. We found 192 wheats. The most in one roll was 25. It was a weird box. If you found one wheat in a roll you knew you would at least find 10. Pretty exciting box. It sure picked our spirits up after having only 2 wheats in a whole box the other day. Now on to a box of nickels.

Great! My best was 32 in one box... never ever got below 8 on a single box of pennies. I average 12-15 wheats per box(mostly 40's and 50's with 1 pre 1940)...
