I do a lot of penny box CRH, it is easier to return pennies and I always loved the Wheat Back Cents anyway. I know I won't get rich but hey there has to be more 1914-D's and 1931-S pennies out there right? Went to the bank to exchange some Brinks boxes of pennies and were told they did not have any but did have some handwrapped rolls they could do. Handwraps are always a mystery, normally they produce less wheats than the Brinks boxes, why who knows? It could be because when handwrapping people may notice an "odd" type of penny and hold it out. Well in this $25.00 of handwraps it was a different story. Two rolls produced 78 wheats and 1 1907 Indian head! the total was 86 wheats and the Indian Head. There were many S mint marks in the group and included a 1943-S steel-zinc penny! My best box ever!
Last year I pulled over 3,000 wheats, 9 Indian Heads, many foriegn coins, over 30 Canadian "Georgies" a lot of dimes, yep even in the Brinks rolls and tokens etc.
