<p>[QUOTE="vintagemintage, post: 2404096, member: 75988"]Where I dump they don't have a counting machine, they bag the coins in a sealed bag and send them to their coin vault to be verified. I've been coming out short for months now and have suspected the coin vault, but I recently discovered that some of my Loomis rolls are short. The first one I found was short by <u><i><b>3</b></i></u> halves! The formed ends of the roll were perfect and un-tampered with but it was visibly much shorter than a standard roll. Today I just picked up 2 Loomis boxes and I immediately made a close inspection of each roll and found 8 rolls that were each short by 1 half and had perfect undisturbed ends, just a slightly shorter roll. They are so close to full length that one could easily not notice without careful scrutiny. I brought all the unopened short rolls back to the bank and we verified that they were sealed original wraps, then we open and counted, each one coin short. They have contacted Garda and reimbursed me for the shortage. Moral of this story: Even original wrapped and sealed rolls from sealed boxes are not guaranteed to contain full value, <b>check them closely!</b>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
