[QUOTE="Jim Leff, post: 4317599, member: 111786"]In case anyone's curious, here are two random rolls (actually one roll plus 50 loose ones). Most marked "with luster" have only partial luster, but a few are brilliant. BTW, I found a smart way to do this. I opened a new note on my phone, turned on dictation, left the phone on my desk, and just barked into the phone "1944 fine new line 1955d very fine new line (etc)". I got through the rolls quickly! I'd imagine the distribution curve is normal for wheaties pulled from pocket change circa 1960-1968: I left off "P". I'm not quite that nerdy.
