Nice find! You look at them a lot closer than I do. If I'm finding rolls with that high percentage of zinc, my scrutiny level goes waaayyy down.

the trick is a 10X loupe on my glasses, hold a short stack of coins in left hand---look at both sides, drop in container. takes about 3 minutes per roll if you slice the ends off & lay coins in straight lines, grabbing 15 or so for the stack. production line CRH'ing :laughing7:

any suspect coin gets a peek with the lighted 25X loupe to weed out the PMD crap. I do this with all denom's except dimes ---they get edge checked
