So far this week and last week I sorted $60 in rolls from the bank and some random change. I ended up with 44 rolls of cu pennies. Not counting what I used to fill in books, wheat pennies, and canadian pennies.

120 rolls / 44 rolls = ~ 36%
I got 36 wheat pennies from this.
i got 33 pre 1996 canadians.
1 25 cent 1984 from the netherlands

Some may think the extra change throws off my percentages, but as I said the percentages does not include what I took from filling in my books , the wheat pennies, or the canadians which would most likely add up to over 2 rolls worth of cu.
