Avg. # of wheat pennies in $50 bank bags?

Whats the average number of wheat pennies one would find in a $50 bank bag or $50 in rolled coins.
I found 22 wheat pennies while bagging up $50 worth of pennies at work is that a good find?

I usually find somewhere between 15 and 20, but in some I've found none and some I've found lots.
It's all in the luck of the draw!

I'm told that I'm very lucky to have found an Indian Head in my first and only group of $50. I'll get another $50 one of these days

I've been going through boxes of cents for the past 2 years and my average comes out to 16 per $25 box. The most I ever found in one box was 53, the least was 2.
I have never found an Indian penny (I've searched about 30,000 to 40,000 pennies in all) but have heard of someone who has. I find Canadians about half as often as I find Wheats. I have found 1 dime in a penny roll, also have found a penny in a dime roll.
