30th box tonight

Found 28th warnick (a 42P) in the very last roll, after I had about given up on this box.

So 28 warnicks in 30 boxes plus $140 in loose rolls. Still averaging nearly 1 per box. Some skunks, some multiples, averages to about .9 per box. Throw in the buffs that come up, and the occasional album gap filler, and this is the most fun I've been able to create since the earlier days of cent sorting. Liking it! Doesn't take much time, it's relaxing, and there are some reasonable results.

[mtalbot_ca]

Good for you.

Do you get a lot of Canadians?

[68Camaro]

Usually only 1-2 a box, and almost always cuni ones.

Many Canadian. Hey TD Bank...what's up with that? You dish them out but you won't redeem them. Bunch of those damn 20 pence coins, too. Nice work if you can get it, I guess...sell $98.50 in coin for $100

(I'm not really complaining )
