My pick-up bank forgot to place my order for halves last week, so I decided to try some dimes instead. Initially I was just going to grab $500, but the teller happened to have out $1000 in CWR that she was just about to unwrap and bag up, so I bought them all. Glad I did, because I snagged these seven goodies, including my first Merc and my first silver dime ender:
1x 41D, 1x 56, 1x 58, 1x 61, and 3x 64D
One of the 64Ds has a noticeable die crack on the reverse from the oak leaves through the C in AMERICA to the rim
However, not all was beer and skittles. It was all cwr, and I am used to getting occasionally shorted a coin or two, or having foreign coins substituted in, and I accept that as part of the hobby. Even when I get 9 Canadian dimes, 2 5-pence pieces, and 5 pennies instead of the 16 dimes that should've been there:
But this really takes the cake right here
A solid roll of pennies. I think what pisses me off is not so much that I lost at least $4.50 here (plus the other $1.60 from other rolls), but that someone really took the time to squeeze all those pennies into a dime wrapper, because it's sized for dimes, and you actually have to put some effort into it to force pennies down that tube.
We've had a few morality/ethics threads on TNet recently that lead me to believe I'm preaching to the choir, but please, don't be that individual who stiffs others with junk in rolls.
