For me these are few and far between, but the other day while opening rolls for later saerching, I came across two boxes with the same date and initials on them. Both came from the same bank. There were four rolls in one box with a dime in it, and one roll in the other box with one in it. I took some pictures and I'll post them, but they are kind of hard to see. Remember, I have nice guns, and a cheap camera, hehe.
Four from one box. I tried to line up the dimes. Start from the second coin up on the roll to the left and go across.
One from the other box. Easy to see.
All five on the two boxes. All dimes are pretty much lined up. Starting from the left, seventh coin down. From the date on the boxes you can tell I need to get sorting....

| Deal, i had a few boxes a while back like that too. I think it was 4 or 5 rolls between two boxes that had a dime on them. I hope they keep them coming. Mine were also Brinks. Ive also had smashed dimes that are closer to the size of a penny so I could see those slipping in the wrong coin slot, but If I remember correctly, the dimes I got were normal dimes (not disfigured shape) |
