A $25 box I got back on 10/29/14 yielded the following:

Pre 1982 = 323 (I don't count or keep the uglies)
Copper 1982's = 27 coppers of the 42 total coins from 1982
Wheats = 15 (none before 1940)
Canada = 2
Total coppers = 365 (14.60%)
Former stock broker w/ ~20 yrs. at one company. Spoke with 100k+ people and traded a lot (long, short, options, margin, extended hours, etc.).

NOTE: ANY stocks I discuss, no matter how compelling, carry risk- often
substantial. If not prepared to buy it multiple times in modest amounts without going overboard (assuming nothing really wrong with the company), you need to learn more about the market and managing risk. Also, please research covered calls (options) and selling short as well.

25 wheats in a single box. Wow! I usually get perhaps 5-7 or so.

An oddity, for this area 12 seems more average. I just did another bank box 3 weeks later, 28 wheats.
