Coin Searcher At Brinks?

could be someone at the bank -OR- some other roll searchers dumps.

Interesting topic ... but why are you posting this in the 'USA Error and Variety' forum.

I say your finds are just normal bank roll variance ... I've seen the same in many of my roll searches.

I don't think the quantity you are talking about statistically speaking is significant. If over the long haul you find these sort of issues in 2% of your rolls, then I would say it is interesting.

There is nothing fishy about anything. Your finds are normal. Everything you've described I've seen more times than I can count. I've gotten sealed boxes that have been sitting around for years.

I recently bought a box that had red font on the brown box. Not a red field with the letters in brown like the current box. Those who have been searching cents for a while know what I'm talking about. The newest coins in there were '07s. Lot of minty fresh '07s.

When large collection or stockpiles get dumped, it is not uncommon to get a chunk of it as it moves through circulation as it dilutes...

I really can not buy into the notion that Brinks has a coin searcher sitting at the machines going through coins. The speed and volume of the coin being processed all but makes that impossible. This wouldn't attract attention from security if someone actually tried? There are more surveillance cameras in those facilities than you can imagine.

This reminds me of the myth that Brinks sorts out silver. Even though we are finding silver in Brinks boxes...

im in central florida and search brinks also have your boxes come up short? also I tend to find way more p than d by a wide margin

I agree that there seems to be something fishy going on with brinks (and I'd never trust them to watch my money), but I also don't have any other options. I'd love to find a place where I could get bags, though, to avoid brinks and avoid ripping open so many rolls.
