If you were really "shorted a roll from a sealed box" you should report the loss to the bank. I certainly would!

@merclover, I did but I opened the boxes at home so they could not do anything other than tell the company that brings them there was a complaint of being short a 10 dollar roll. They are good to me so I did not make a fuss. First one I have gotten that was actually short. Lesson learned.

Yes @oddguy, they are good to me and that is the only bank that will order them for me. It was not their fault as the boxes were still sealed.

The coins like this I've found could be opened by twisting one side relative to the other, as if unmessing with the two parts. This might involve pressing one side's surface with a thumb, something most collectors instinctually avoid.

("unmessing" is a word substituted by this board for a term that involves use of a screwdriver)

I've heard of putting it into a glass/glass and shaking the glass a bit and they open that way. (not hard though) That was mentioned on here before.
