Statistics for my first 20,000 pennies sorted (started 6/13/2009)...I have never purchased a full $25.00 box. I usually tend to pick up 10-20 rolls at a time when I am in the area of the two banks where I have accounts (these banks have many, many branches around my town which makes dumping the Zincs easier as I spread it around). I also will pick up a few rolls here and there whenever I'm in the grocery and/or convenience store...
Total #: 20,000
Canada: 55 (0.275%)
Wheat: 101 (0.505%)
'59-'81: 5,746 (28.73%)
'82: 688 (3.44%)
'83-Current: 13,410 (67.05%)
My oldest wheatie is a 1909 (mintage 72.7MM).
My rarest wheatie is a 1925D (mintage 22.6MM).
My oldest Canadian is a 1943 (George VI).
I have never found a George V or an Indian Head.
Being in Wisconsin, I am quite surprised by the relative lack of Canadian cents in rolls...they seemed quite more common before I began to sort.
Best Regards,
Jeff |
