I haven't been paying attention to the rolls in my half boxes, just making sure there are 50 of them. Today as I was going through my 3rd box today and noticed a few rolls that seem taller than the others and then some that were shorter.

I separated them and found 5 rolls of 21 coins and 3 rolls of 19 and 1 of 18. At least it averaged out but it amazing that 9 rolls in one box were miscounted by the machine, both over and under...

A few weeks ago there was a nickel in the middle of one of my MWR's.
I have come to not be surprised by things other than half dollars in the rolls, but that nickel definitely did the trick!

I actually got a plastic dime in a roll of dimes! Some sort of toy. I just thought that the machine rollers would be more accurate but I guess not

I read this post, opened my box and ,... short rolls. More than ever. No tall ones either. I didn't open the shorts. I didn't even finish the box it looked so dismal. I guess I am burning out on a mega skunk roll.

My pick up bank was shorting me for a long time with short rolls, which I posted a long time ago. Since then they must have switched carriers as the boxes are spot on and a different stamp on them as well.
