Hello Everyone,

I'm still at it at, 2 boxes a week. (Halves). I've always looked at the way coins are facing in a MWR as I go through them and wondered if I'd ever come across a roll that all faced the same way.

Well, today it happened. I know the chances are slim to none. Opened the roll and all the halves were facing the same way.

Has this happened to anyone else? It's a first for me.

Still steadily pulling silver here and there. No big numbers. Just adding to the stack.

Thanks for reading and keep on stacking!

According to random probability, there is a 2 in 1,048,576 chance (2 because it could be backwards or forward) of that happening.

Still a way better chance than Powerball.
 
It's the same chances that every other one is facing differently ... or even more strange the chances of any specific pattern like 2 obverse, 1 reverse, 3 obverse, 5 reverse, 1 obverse, 4 reverse, 4 obverse except there is no 2 in the numerator this time...so I guess half as likely as all facing the same direction.
