They should require the depositors account number on the roll or clear.

Unknown95,

Weighing won't work, even excluding silver and American dimes,
Post-1968 Canadian dimes have three different weights:
1968 to 1978 dimes weigh 2.08 grams
1979 to 2000 dimes weigh 2.07 grams
2000 to present dimes weigh 1.75 grams

Mr.Canada,

I am not too crazy about putting personal information like account numbers or telephone numbers on coin rolls.

My RBC branch has a good approach.
I often deposit bundles of coins and they simply attached a copy of my deposit slip onto the bundle and the teller tosses out the deposit slip when all the rolls have been withdrawn from the bundle or someone requests the entire bundle of rolls.

When I ran coin operated equipment, I had to either sign each roll of quarters, (I had a stamp), or empty the rolls into $500 bags of loose coin.

Whenever I go to my bank to exchange rolls, the tellers open and count everything, I thought this was standard practice at all banks. I realize this is not practical for large deposits, I always assumed there were coin counters for that.

I didn't know the trust system still existed in the banking sector... Though I don't think it is unreasonable to open and count rolls, since many people are bad with numbers.

I worked in a bank for years and started on cash (Bank of Montreal) and when I took rolls of quarters or dimes it was very simple ... you rake your fingernail over the them to check for the reeding. It only takes a second ... much faster and easier than removing them from the paper rolls and having to re-roll them later. Before I started, it was the honour system until they got burned with a bunch of quarter/washers. Then the policy was to open them and roll them back up later. Needless to say they liked my way of doing it better.

No banks in my small town will take rolled coins. They made me crack'em open right there. Threw'em in the counter.
