Hothgar said:My small bank is my dumpsite for change (which i roll). I've found that if you say that your nephew collects coins, and likes to hunt through rolls for older coins, the tellers will find rolls they think will be older (that people have brought in). If i say they are for myself they seem more stand-offish. So, the nephew factor it is!

These bank rolled rolls are irritating, gotta tear em to pieces, then re-roll in a new wrapper.
Worth it though!

Hothgar said:I've seen those clear plastic rolls before - here the "bank rolled" coins are what people call shotgun rolls. TIGHTLY wrapped around and curled at the edges so you can see the top coin on both sides. only way to get at the coins is to destroy the wrapper - and hence my continuous need for more rollers.
And yeah - that's how i check dimes - silver ones are easy to spot. Same with quarters. Cept i check a few quarters for errors as well (wisconsin mainly).
