Finding 7 in the same roll is explained better by a too-thick coinage strip than foreign planchets.

Marv65 Bedrock of the Community United States 10601 Posts	Posted 09/06/2025 8:42 pm Having 7 over weight planchet strikes in a roll has a whole lot better odds of happening than 7 foreign planchet strikes...... . High tolerance for 1964 cents is 3.24 grams so 3.39 isn't that extreme. Report this Post to the Staff
