    I picked up $100 in bank wrapped dimes today. Every visible ender is a 2018P. Those not visible are all just as shiny and uncirc as those visible.

    I opened one roll and sure enough every dime is 2018P in unc condition.

    Does anyone know of any errors or variations with 2018P that would warrant opening all the other rolls?

    Bummer of a hunt today.

    Errors can happen any year so its a shot in the dark
    No major Varieties are reported, there may be a DDO but the possibility of it having any value is low.
    I would keep a 2 or 3 rolls as a "investment." It could be in demand later down the road.

    You probably won't find anything. They're probably all 2018s. But, silver dimes have a different weight than clad dimes. So, you could weigh the rolls before opening them. And if any of the rolls are different, open those ones.

    No good reason but you should save a few rolls for yourself. It's a crap shoot looking for varieties and errors on them but you can pick out the best ones.

    Keeping 2 or 3 as an "investment" is like saving Zincolns for their copper.

    Keeping two or three if they become in demand because of the discovery of a rare variety seems like a fine option to me

    In that case, rip the dang things open now and receive credit for the discovery!

    The company wrapping the bank rolls such as Guarda, etc. might check for silver from bank returns, but most likely the solid box came from the intermediate rolling company after emptying one or more ballistic bags into a large counting /rolling machine and boxing them , and most ballistic bags of coins are about 2000 lbs. So there might be some mixing, but most the same. Some of those can make a safe extremely difficult to steal. Jim
