    I've had rolls with addresses written on them as well as bank account numbers. Never a mailing label lol. You should mail the wrapper back to her :)

    Back in the old days, many banks would require addresses or phone numbers on customer deposited rolls. That way, they knew who shorted a roll or filled it with Canadian coins.

    Address labels were easier than writing. Willing to bet that the person on the label is probably from that time period.

    And spend a roll of pennies and a nickel on postage? I don't think so.:hilarious:

    That being said, OP might want to edit pic so we cant see name/address for privacy reasons.

    At one point in the distant past, a local Wells Fargo branch wanted the account number written on all rolls. That was a pain in the butt.

    Not sure who she is but she lives in the same city as my cousin.

    There are some banks that require you to put your name and other information on the rolls

    Back in the day banks always wanted your name and phone number and often an address...the assumption was that they could contact you if they were shorted.
    Some banks still want contact info on customer's deposited rolls but SOME banks these days understand that they really shouldn't re-distribute those rolls with the info still on them lol.

    When I deposit cash now (even just a few hundred) both of my local banks are scanning in the bar code on my driver's license.

    I guess there's a lot of counterfeiting going on nowadays.

    That begs the question of how it got back into circulation without being inspected, doesn't it? LOL

    Decades ago my bank(s) used to have me put my name and address on the rolls.
    Then just the account number which I still have memorized today .. 4313005128 for an acct long gone, for a bank long gone. I wrote it so many times it's burnt into my brain cells.

    Of course, I never turned in all those rolls. I started just writing down the decade of cents put in to them.

    Here's a few of those rolls. The ones with an adhesive to keep them close just fall apart when you touch them. The top right one has "60" on it for 1960s cents. There are many 70s, 60s, 50s, 40s, 30 rolls in there and other containers.

    They'll probably just end up in the banks sorter by my kids ... I dont' have the energy or strength to go through them. I also have jars and jars of cents and quarters, buckets of the other nickels, dimes and stuff used as misc ballast.
    Kids will be more interested in the rectangular paper than the coins.

    I've seen a few like that in the past. Banks would have your write you name and address on rolls of coins you were "turning in" many of us doing CRH back then used address stickers to save time and effort..

    The Credit Union that I bank with would rather you open the roll and put it in the coinstar or whatever the name is. After you have dropped them in the coinstar, you get a receipt that you take to the teller and they deposit in your account. I haven't seen anyone get cash from the receipt. They probably do, but I'm not that nosey.

    Putting a label on a roll isn't unusual. I've done it in the past. It is a lot quicker than writing everything on a roll. It was very common up to about 10 years ago.

    Back in the 70's, I recall people did that a lot...it was easier than having to write the info and if I recall correctly, the banks required you to put your info on coin rolls.
