I have searched many boxes of pennies and I usually find one or two pennies from the 60's that would appear to be BU, so for me it is not that uncommon. I usually also fine a few from the early 70's. I always wonder where they have been. I just assume they have been hidden away in someones sock drawer or grandma's penny jar until someone decided to turn them in. It would seem unlikely that there are still original rolls like that in a bank vault somewhere, but it is possible. And since yours were all the same date, who knows. Either that or they were stolen from somebody and just spent
