Was able to get a full box of CWR's at a bank on Monday. Started opening them on Tuesday and right away I could see that results were going to be good. Finished the box (50 rolls) today. Here are the results:
938 U.S. copper
30 CAD copper
8 wheats
976 total copper which means 19.5 per roll for 39 percent!
Worth mentioning: one dime AND not one coin newer than 2000
Even the zincs were older (mostly 80's and early 90's)
Buy rolls NOW while you still can!

That’s a legendary haul! Congrats.

It’s been a while since I sorted pennies looking for copper so I decided to stop by a nearby bank branch to pick up some rolls of pennies and nickels. All they had available was $3 in BWRs of cents and no nickels. I pulled a total of 38 copper cents for a 12.67% yield.

Currently opening rolls roughly five days a week, but don't tabulate very often. Sometimes I don't even count the number of rolls that I open. Today I decided to tabulate and report:
40 rolls (12 CWR's, 14 string and 14 Loomis)
388 U.S. copper
10 wheats
2 king George
13 other CAD coppers
413 TOTAL. 10.3 per roll for 20.6 percent

Just opened another 12 rolls of pennies an hour ago. Only 73 copper, which is basically just SIX per roll or 12 percent. The reason is simple: these rolls came from my nearest bank (only 1.5 miles away). Percentages in my town are lower than other towns or cities because I have spent years draining the copper and wheats out of the two nearest banks.
P.S. no wheats, no Canadians and no dimes in this batch either

Searched a CWR obtained from Chase a few days ago. There were 46 zincolns and 7 coppers. I wish every roll contained 53 pennies.
