Roll find? How could someone spend something like that, and not notice it?

Yep, another roll find. There are these little coin counting machines that you can buy at Wal-Mart and this one was in a roll of coins that came from someone using one of those devices.

It apparently made it through the machine and the wrappers are a little wider than normal so it fit, It wasn't laying totally flat in the roll but that's how I found it.

I've found several off center struck and clipped planchet coins in rolls. I've even found them in rolls that came from counting companies like Brinks.

The mechanical processes used to roll bulk coins will allow for off center struck coins to get into rolls if they arent too out of shape.

Some people just stick errors into rolls because they are not collectors and don't understand the fact that the coin is an error.
