Six pre 1940 is a lot for only 20 rolls. Most of the wheats out there are from the forties and fifties.

[John Reich]

There were actually 54 wheats total in the 20 rolls. 46 of them were in one roll, which contained the 6 pre-1940's. The tellers at my bank know I search rolls and when they find rolls they know contain wheats they save them for me. My best score thru them was $16.00 face in wheats that had been brought in--they actually called me to pick up that batch! A couple months ago someone turned in a roll of Indian head pennies but they kept that roll and divided it up among themselves. I tell them what I'm up to and tell them what they should be looking for in coins and currency. They keep the silver they find, although there's a customer who searches nickel rolls for war nickels so one teller saves the war nix for him. My penny CWR searching/Dansco album project is just a pure hobby for me. I know I'm never going to complete the album, but it's fun to see just how far I can go with it.
