    a quick google search yields - Brandt, Inc. manufactures coin counting equipment. Also found:

    In 1965, Kenneth H. Flitz was hired as a district sales manager for Brandt Incorporated, headquartered in Watertown, Wisconsin. Ken’s sales and service area encompassed most of Wisconsin and Upper Michigan. At that time, Brandt Incorporated was the largest manufacturer of Coin Sorters, Coin Packagers and Coin Dispensers.

    From the responses, it appears to me that the coins are just taken from a machine such as coinstar and re-rolled.

    So, in other words it's used in sales pitch, but has no particular meaning. Honestly, it sounds less ignorant than the typical stupid "shot gun roll" lingo on ebay!

    All it means is that whoever rolled it was using paper from the Brandt company. It may or may not have been rolled using a Brandt rolling machine. Same thing goes for when you see one ans they say it is a Strings & Son roll. Just means that someone is using paper that came from that company. Neither Brandt or Strings & Son roll coins. They just make the equipment and the paper.
