throughout the past 4 years I've been buying bank wrapped rolls from the 70's and 80's.

my excel spreadsheet states that in the last 4 years I've searched 21 rolls from 1976 - 1980

today for the first time ever, I pulled a 1976 penny from a 1977 roll, and a 1978 penny from a 1979 roll. how does this happen

The coins were rolled either at banks or at companies like Brinks. I think it is self-explanatory... mint bags come in, rolls go out, they were not obligated to segregate the contents of the bag.
