<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Paddy54, post: 2567426, member: 19250&quot;]Finding varieties&nbsp; is one thing in sealed mint bags, as for errors you won&#039;t ......well let me say the odds are slim to none. The new technology&nbsp; catches coins that are not struck correctly&nbsp; and sends them to another&nbsp; machine&nbsp; that waffles them. </p><p>The company&nbsp; I work for uses the same sort of technology&nbsp; to pack meats. As a 80 lb log of lunch meat is loaded into a machine&nbsp; that cuts and vacuum&nbsp; packs it. </p><p>The log is scanned&nbsp; using several device&#039;s&nbsp; if there a void in the meat that section&nbsp; is cut out and discarded .</p><p>To understand&nbsp; better&nbsp; think about packing&nbsp; packages&nbsp; of 7 ounces&nbsp; of&nbsp; lunch meat.&nbsp; If the log has a void &quot;air bubbles&nbsp; &quot; and that area is sliced it doesn&#039;t&nbsp; weight&nbsp; what a normal whole slice would weight....thus the pkg. Would be under weight. And not up to standards . </p><p>Same thing here the machine&nbsp; sorts throughout&nbsp; the minted coins and kicks out any that are sub par.</p><p>The technology&nbsp; is so good that finding an error in a mint bag is dang near impossible . Now varieties&nbsp; yes as the machine&nbsp; doesn&#039;t&nbsp; scan for them just errors.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
