So I stopped at a new bank in the next town over and asked if they had any halves. They reply they have about $1000 worth in the vault. So I ask for a box since all I had on me was $500. Just went through it and sadly it was a skunk. Coin count was off too. Total of 999 coins in the box. It was in Strings wrappers. I wasn't sure if it was someones dump or if it was just bad a bad machine wrap job as some rolls were tight, others not so much. Box was sealed so no clue if it was a dump or not. Debating if I should go get the other $500 worth or not. This is box 3 of a 3 box skunk streak.

Had 8 - 21 counts
Had 9 - 19 counts
Rest - 20 counts

Also found this little mutilated gem in one roll. Appears to be solder. It's only on the front.:

I wouldn't make a big deal over $0.50... ::)
 

ya the machines make mistakes to! I had a roll monday night that had 11.50 in it.
 

Plus...other times it may work in your favor. I repeatedly get rolls in my boxes that contain 21 halves :) I handle so many rolls each week, I can tell immediately if the roll has an extra half or if it is missing one as well. :) Overall, I just assume it is all washing out....
 

that mutilated one i would keep things like that you dont find every day
 

Sort of like my Grandpa told me when a Coke machine kept my last change on a 100 degree day:

"Beware anything that will back it's butt in a corner and challenge the world." ;D

HH...SB :)'n N-the-"DEN!"
