I've only grown from seed 2 times but each time i had very close to 100% germination in peat perlite mix with a thin layer of pure peat on top, covered to keep humidity up.

You should see about 80% germination if you have decent temps (75-90f) and high humidity if the seeds are fairly fresh. After the seeds are a year old I wouldn't expect more than 50% germination but it's certainly possible to be much higher.
