I understand that when I dump dimes I may have to take my lumps from time to time on the count, but I really don't like starting out on the minus side with a fresh box. I do a lot of Brinks boxes of dimes, and this is becoming very common to the tune of one or two of these in every box. It's not an open roll or a snapped end, both of these ends are tapered like a normal size roll. Anyone else seeing short factory rolls like this?

Wow those suck. I hope there was some silver in there to make up for it. I thought it was bad when the douchebags shove pennies into cwr dime rolls

Yes, I have seen it plenty of times. You just have to return it to the bank for a replacement roll. I've been shorted so many times that it happens about 70% of the time. Typically the rolls are short by one coin. That's why I bring a scale there and open the box and weigh them at the bank. Any that are short, I exchange with the tellers. That solves the problem.

They get paid 10 bucks an hour so they don't care.

I got my recent loomis boxes stamped Feb. 29, 2009. First of all, there was no 29th in Feb of 2009. Second, I found a few 2010 halves in the boxes.
