Although it might not qualify (since it was found in a bag from the bank instead of a roll from the bank) - the strangest thing I've found is a 14k gold men's wedding ring...

 

I suppose for me it would be a 1964 Swiss 10 Rappen piece in a penny roll. It's quite a bit larger then a penny, so it was rather strange.

 

Though it wasn't my find, I have a friend who found a few rolls of washers with a cent on each end.

 

I've never defrauded a bank, but if I ever did, I'd like to think I'd shoot for more than forty-eight cents at a time.

Edit: come to think of it, can you even get washers for less than a penny apiece? I guess there's always stealing them from the workplace...

 

I got a 1950's Hungarian penny in my roll, and 2 Barbados pennys... in different rolls... weird

 

Creepiest for me was the German 5pf coin from 1942 or whatever that I found earlier this year. Finding a nazi coin in a cent roll was a bit disturbing.

 

Yikes... especially if you lost someone wwii

 

I got a plastic toy penny in a roll of BWR cents.

 

I have probably half a dozen of them I have found in CWR and BWR - kind of strange in a BWR especially.

 

i have found plastic coins of all 6 denominations in rolls. 6 cents ,1 nickel, 2 dimes, 3 quarters, 1 half and 2 dollars. i wonder how they end up in those BWRs

 

I have to wonder that some of the companies like Brinks, Garda etc are loosening up their machines specifications for coins to tolerate more Canadian coins because I am getting steel 5 and 10c coins even in BWR lately. I think it is rather comical to find plastic play money in BWR - sort of an ironic commentary on how worthless the cent is.
