Epic Penny pick-up Update

Last week my pick up included $24 in CWR pennies. $12 was in older looking wrapper, and having now searched through everything it seems like at least another $8 in more modern wrapped rolls was the same deposit. Rough numbers and highlights:

About 60% was from the '60s, 10% 50's and 70's, 20% misc other.

$1.79 in wheat pennies, 80% from 50/40's, 20% older. One super crispy 1957-D.

DDRs from, 1980 1970 1964

DDOs from 1969 1961

(I'm real bad at detecting these even with an electric scope. Sorry if I listed something "impossible")

1946 Canadian penny

Three 1973-s and one 1970-s

Penny Hunt

Walked into my pick-up bank today and was greeted with an ominous "We've been waiting for you." 5 months in and I guess they are starting to know me and my routine. Normally there's been $0-$20 face of CWR available each week, but this week they had $109 ready for me. Most of it was the familiar, modern looking CWRs, but $12 in pennies looked ancient.

I sampled three penny roles at home. Mostly '60's, but also a few from '50s and '70s. 12 Wheat pennies. 15 really shiny 1968-Ds (uncirculated?). 1 '40s Canadian.

Anything else I should be on the look-out for tonight? I'm not normally a penny guy, but I'd be lying if I didn't say my heart was beating a bit. High hopes for the non-penny roles, but at this point I don't even care about my weekly silver chase!

1946 Henning or unlucky PMD location? I'm skeptical as it doesn't seem loopy enough from what I've previously. Figured I'd ask before it disappears into a tube.
