First off, a big congrats!

I'll jump in on the speculation. I assume since BofA that it came from a machine roll. If some lowlife broke in to a house or took money from a family member might have deposited it in one of the self serve coin machines, like one of my banks have. From that point, the entire process would be automated until the roll was opened.

i mean how dumb do you have to be to put this in a penny roll?

no one this dumb would own a coin like this. no one this dumb would put it in a bank roll... how dumb do you have to be to accidentally dump a coin like that...

was it in a bank roll from a box or hand rolled customer wrap? please post more information about this. did you find anything else of value in the roll or box?
