I'm trying to figure out what percentage of 1964's are the EWL type. I have a bunch of them to go through and don't want to waste the time if I can only expect to find 1 or 2. Also, I have a bunch of 64's that appear to have come from mint sets- was the EWL type produced on mint sets and proofs or only on business strikes?

I've only found one xwl in over 20,000+ .999 nickels, but I expect most of the coins I get have been previously checked.

It would actually be interesting to get a hard statistic on how many can one expect from an untaped source. Personnaly, in over 40,000 .999 nickels searched I did not find any. Good luck and keep us posted.

Yes. I never found one on the wild. Around the 30$-45$ mark.
