Picked up a box of halves and $100 in CWR of nickels and one of the rolls was wrapped in this. Has anyone seen these before. They are reusable. I'll post my results later.

I've found a few of these for dimes, they were a short lived design as the buttons snaps don't click and all your coins fall out. I don't store coins in them because they are probably not archival safe.

I've started to run across a few of these in CWR dimes. Kind of funky. I"m keeping a few of them, just to hold my slow accumulation of silver dimes I find. (I'm close to filling up a roll, after doing this for a year or so. Well, I've only really been asking for CWR dimes for the last few months.)

I found one of those in a box of CWR's of pennies. Only one I've ever seen. Thought it was very strange, but seemed to work ok. Kids have it in their room now since they really thought it was cool.

if i recall correctly, they are used a lot up in canada... canadian hunter was telling me how banks up in canada sometimes don't accept them because of the fact they can bust open due to the buttons on the side, interesting find, i have yet to find an unusual CWR... right now a note card is my weirdest i've gotten, half dollars were wrapped in it.
