<p>[QUOTE=&quot;johnnyflesh, post: 1062953, member: 28221&quot;]I personally love numbers and doing on the fly stats in my head. I realize that LUCK is a big part of roll searching, but I thought I&#039;d post my &quot;potential finds&quot; from a box of pennies since I haven&#039;t seen anything like this. </p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;m simply going to copy another post of the stuff I&#039;m looking for and put how many potentials I&#039;ve found. I use a cup method so for every variety I list I have a cup for and the number before is how many I&#039;ve found. Once I&#039;ve went through them all I&#039;ll post any finds from the box. I found the cup method neat since you can see how rare it is to find a certain coin, and on top of that there must be a double die or something else to make it special. If there&#039;s any other math nerds out there feel free to post your results here.</p><p><br /></p><p>out of 2,500 cents this is what I sorted for closer inspection with hopes of finding something: (everything else tossed back in the recycle bucket):</p><p><br /></p><p style="text-align: left"><span style="color: #000000">2-&nbsp; 60- Small date</span></p> <p style="text-align: left"><span style="color: #000000"><br /></span></p> <p style="text-align: left"><span style="color: #000000">12-&nbsp; 68D- dd reverse in America, or D over D mintmark</span></p> <p style="text-align: left"><span style="color: #000000"><br /></span></p> <p style="text-align: left"><span style="color: #000000">1-&nbsp; 69 S- DD in LIB, IGWT, Date</span></p> <p style="text-align: left"><span style="color: #000000"><br /></span></p> <p style="text-align: left"><span style="color: #000000">1-&nbsp; 70 S- DD in Trust, LIB</span></p> <p style="text-align: left"><span style="color: #000000"><br /></span></p> <p style="text-align: left"><span style="color: #000000">1-&nbsp; 71- DD in LIB, IGWT</span></p> <p style="text-align: left"><span style="color: #000000"><br /></span></p> <p style="text-align: left"><span style="color: #000000">6-&nbsp; 72- DD in date (I find it hard to see the DD even in pics with arrows... maybe I&#039;ll get lucky)</span></p> <p style="text-align: left"><span style="color: #000000"><br /></span></p> <p style="text-align: left"><span style="color: #000000">13-&nbsp; 80 D- S Shadow over D mintmark</span></p> <p style="text-align: left"><span style="color: #000000"><br /></span></p> <p style="text-align: left"><span style="color: #000000">35-&nbsp; 82- DD in IGWT or DD in E Pluribus Unum (seems line the REV DD is newer, but I struggle with DD&#039;s.)</span></p> <p style="text-align: left"><span style="color: #000000"><br /></span></p> <p style="text-align: left"><span style="color: #000000">27-&nbsp; 83- DD REV and IGWT </span></p> <p style="text-align: left"><span style="color: #000000"><br /></span></p> <p style="text-align: left"><span style="color: #000000">36-&nbsp; 84- Double Ear </span></p> <p style="text-align: left"><span style="color: #000000"><br /></span></p> <p style="text-align: left"><span style="color: #000000">13-&nbsp; 84D- Slight DD on date</span></p> <p style="text-align: left"><span style="color: #000000"><br /></span></p> <p style="text-align: left"><span style="color: #000000">21-&nbsp; 92 D- Close AM <span style="color: red">FOUND 0</span></span></p> <p style="text-align: left"><span style="color: #000000"><br /></span></p> <p style="text-align: left"><span style="color: #000000">32-&nbsp; 94- DD REV in last 3 columns</span></p> <p style="text-align: left"><span style="color: #000000"><br /></span></p> <p style="text-align: left"><span style="color: #000000">48-&nbsp; 95- DD in LIB</span></p> <p style="text-align: left"><span style="color: #000000"><br /></span></p> <p style="text-align: left"><span style="color: #000000">38-&nbsp; 95 D- DD in IGWT, and Date</span></p> <p style="text-align: left"><span style="color: #000000"><br /></span></p> <p style="text-align: left"><span style="color: #000000">21-&nbsp; 97- DD ear</span></p> <p style="text-align: left"><span style="color: #000000"><br /></span></p> <p style="text-align: left"><span style="color: #000000">124-&nbsp; 98, 99, 00- WAM <span style="color: red">FOUND 0</span></span></p> <p style="text-align: left"><span style="color: #000000"><br /></span></p> <p style="text-align: left"><span style="color: #000000">76-&nbsp; 06- DD Beard and Earlobe, or DD in LIB IGWT and Date</span></p> <p style="text-align: left"><span style="color: #000000"><br /></span></p> <p style="text-align: left"><span style="color: #000000">28-&nbsp; 09- DD REV in hands of Lincoln holding the book. and DD in the dots in the cabin </span></p> <p style="text-align: left"><span style="color: #000000"><br /></span></p> <p style="text-align: left"><span style="color: #000000">found 7 wheats and&nbsp; 9 I Kept due to great shape</span></p> <p style="text-align: left"><span style="color: #000000"><br /></span></p> <p style="text-align: left"><span style="color: #000000">and 27 others not in the searched dates due to something catching my attention with naked eye for further inspection (more than likely nothing...) </span></p> <p style="text-align: left"><span style="color: #000000"><br /></span></p> <p style="text-align: left"><span style="color: #000000">I&#039;ll edit this with results after searched in red, but thought this would be pretty neat to do the math and see how many of the potentials were gained from a brinks box at my local hometown bank that has about 10 banks locally. </span></p> <p style="text-align: left"><span style="color: #000000"><br /></span></p><p>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
