Proof question

[BuffaloBoy]

How common are proofs in machine wrapped coin rolls?

I have searched all denominations except quarters and dollar coins, I have found 1 proof nickel in about 20 boxes, 1 proof dime in 4 boxes and never gotten a proof penny in a penny roll. Searched 6 boxes so far, no proofs yet.

How often do you average a proof per per type of box you search?

ex) 1 proof half dollar every 8 boxes, 1 proof nickel every 4 boxes...

Thanks for any answers, I would really appreciate your help and opinions!!!!!!!

I have yet to find a proof penny and proof half dollar, really wish to get one in the wold soon.

I've found two deep cameo proofs in two separate boxes of halves this year. Both show signs of being circulated, but they are fun to find.

I would guess that I find one clad proof half every 30 to 40 boxes. I have never found a proof dime, nickel, or cent.

I've found a total of 3 proof halves in 13 $500 boxes, and one proof dime in 18 $250 boxes. No nickels,pennys or quarters...

*note: some of these were actually found in bags

1 proof half every 2.48 boxes
1 proof nickel every 10.3 boxes (most of mine were found in a single bag though- disregarding that one bag it would probably be about every 30 boxes)
1 proof dime per 4.08 boxes (about 2/3 of mine were found in a single bag-disregarding that one bag it would probably be about every 20 boxes)
1 proof cent per 97 boxes

Thanks to all who answered, really helped me out! This forum has really helped me out with CRH. before this forum, I was not really into CRH, but now I am a small CRH'er, I searched $4,600 to this date this year, ranging from pennies, nickels, dimes and half dollars. I am a smaller searcher since I have 2 supply banks and 1 dump bank. Seriously considering getting another supply bank or at least another dump bank!

I've found 2 clad half proofs in 24 boxes, no other proofs that I know of

My first box of halves turned up a proof they are always fun to find

 

[CHAINCHOMP]

my averages are (aprox):

1 proof half every 10 boxes
1 proof quarter every 5 boxes
1 proof dime every 20 boxes
1 proof nickel every 5 boxes
1 proof penny every 20 boxes

hope this helps! keep it up and hh!
