Kind of a strange batch here. No wheats and no Canadian. Almost entirely Memorial cents. The percentage exceeded 20% which is quite good for my area. Howerver, the copper/zinc ratio on the 1982's doesn't make sense.

Copper non-wheat (20.27%):
495 - Memorial 1959-1981
12 - Memorial 1982

Zinc:
41 - Memorial 1982
1917 - Memorial 1983-2008
