Found this oddity in a roll of pennies, never have I found one of these in a bank roll before, and I probably never will again. Not a customer wrapped roll.

Mint sets included these in the late 80s to denote the Philly mint or the Denver mint (the cello wrapped mint sets). They also used plastic tokens in the 60s.
