[QUOTE="Edinmem, post: 590655, member: 17751"]I bought one of these and the other I picked up from a till at the Albertson's I managed a few years back. Before the Albertson's job I managed a smaller 'mom&pop" here in Memphis. In all the stores I worked in we ordered our change thru the armored service(Brinks,Loomis,Wells Fargo) What we received were boxes of rolled coins all in the 'shotgun shell" type of coin wraps. This thread does not have anything to do with the coins themselves but how they got into circulation. Regardless of who rolled the coins (mint,bank, armored service) they are going to break the wrap because of the shape of the coin ...almost a figure 8. So how do these coins get out into the world for all of us to enjoy. Does anyone have any figures on how many coins from the mint are sent out rolled and how many are sent out in bags? Mint employees could easily see that the roll contains an off-center coin and pull it out as a reject.[/QUOTE]
