    Wow, way to go buddy! I see a few 1980s in almost every roll I search. Still haven't found one of those. Congrats!

    This is box #251 that I have gone through and this is the 1st one that I have found. I will be updating any future finds along with the ratios of copper and wheats I find until I reach my goal of 1,000 boxes. Happy hunting!

    @Pennyman Investments - Throw the results of your searches over in the CRHing thread. It's always nice to see some fellow cent hunters.

    Is cent is in my top 10 Wish To Find List. I think the doubling really accents the coin better than what the original design is.

    I found one around 25 years ago in the Northeastern Ohio area. It was a low end Mint state from an early state of the die.

    I have an OBW roll from a bank in Oklahoma. Debating on opening or not.
