A few weeks ago I got 10 coin rolls from my bank: 4 penny and 6 quarter. I search these to complete my 1975-2013 penny album and to complete my circulation collection of the
State Quarters,
ATB, Territories and American Women series. I recognize these will only have face value but I do it anyway.
Highlights of the hunt:
1
LMC went to the misfit pile. Barely recognizable.
Found 7
ATB Quarters I lacked.
1 US Territories quarter I lacked.
Lowlights of the hunt:
3 of the 4 penny rolls were each short 1 coin
All six quarter rolls were short 1 coin
One quarter roll sandwiched in a dime in the middle
Another quarter roll had a 2014 United Arab Emerates 1 Dirham, nickel-plated steel coin (magnetic).
The above shortages aren't so much monetarily offensive as is the realization that they are likely (IMHO) deliberate! The more I think about it the more P 1 $ $ed I am. I definitely will mention this to the branch manager next time I'm there. I know when I cash in rolls, they are never checked.
