Have not been able to pick up for awhile(work is busy) So I had about an hour today to sort, and pulled from my stash(I have about $300 unsorted dating back to last year) $40 in CWRs. In this mix, there were a lot of different wrappers. I try one of each to get a feel and save the most common wrapper for last. Nothing special till I got to the red wrapperBIG50(which was about HALF of the 40) 6 wheats, 30%. opened another, 4 wheats. stopped at 4th roll my personal record 9 wheats! silly cause when I find a lot of wheats, they are usually in 100% rolls. the 9 wheat roll was 30% and had several 2012s in it! well 30 rolls of these to go! I will keep yall posted!

Enjoy and here's hoping for a few more 100% rolls! I'd freak out if I ever got one of those!

Finished the 30 rolls today! sadly they were not ALL full of wheats. 12 rolls had none. The other 18 ranged from one wheat, to 13! had a lot of 7 and 9 rolls. Final count for 30 rolls was 99 wheats! Ill take it. still odd as the average copper was 30%(about my norm) NOTABLES!! as a bonus I found a 1907 indian,a 1928 georgeV,3 VIs,1 steel, 1 1910 wheat, and ten wheats from 1918-1925. Also found a 55 that gave me a scare, couldnt get the right size pic in, but theres a little doubling on the last 5. Thanks folks!

Here's a pic of my first (and only so far) 100% roll. No wheats but hey. I like it when the bank hands over really old looking stuff!
