Law of physics the bag would have to be torn a fair way down into the bag itself to insert a coin, not only it isn't torn past the seal, it really would need to be torn the opposite direction to insert a coin. Being the first purchaser of the item from the bank, I'm almost certain the security company did not have a bottle of acetone next to them prior to bagging this lot together


Hmmm You are not by chance a member of another forum and go by the username Sulla are you

No I'm not, just an owner of something that could possibly prove you wrong. I have no doubt that there is sharks out there trying to make a quick buck by altering coins but to say it isn't possible that the mint can't make such a mistake is far from the truth

The "tear" in the bag is a cut which is put into all the bags to make them easier to open.
It is not a sign of tampering and you can not get coins into our out of the bag via that cut.
However there are several ways I can think of to tamper with bags.
The coin COULD be a legitimate error from the mint.
OR
It could have been tampered with (eg acetoned and re-released)
Unfortunately, I cannot think of any way to tell the difference.

there is NO way of telling if a coin has been acetoned or if the paint was never applied.
