    What an odd brick.

    50 rolls of 90-95% bu 2013D's with between 1 and 5 older circulated coins in each roll. of the 50 rolls only 2 are solid 2013D... I was pretty surprised when I opened it.

    I came across that quite a bit in 2012 boxes last yr. I pulled a 1912S in a box like that.
    Life is not about greatness but on the impact of good onto others. It is a matter of how much one shines. Explains why I like shiny coins.

      Awhile back I bought a 1983 BU roll on ebay and it had 1 1975 brown penny in it. It was shrink wrapped like these. I thought it was kind of weird but, didn't pay it much mind. Now, I guess I know why...

        When banks roll up coins, or change handling services for that matter, they just dump bags into the rolling machine bin, they don't care if they are BU or circ.

        On a different note, it's interesting to know that many 1974-S rolls also contain P and D examples- The mint mixed them in an attempt to discourage hoarding of the last year of S-Mint cents.

          If I were you, I'd turn these back in. You could try selling them if they were solid dates, but since there are circulated coins mixed in, that would be hard. And I'm guessing you don't want to look at every one of the 2013's.

            I've seen many modern unc rolls with a few stragglers mixed in, sometimes even a lone wheat cent.

            Also had some 1980 OBWs that I thought were P but when dumped they had about 40% D coins randomly mixed in.

            You never know what's in a roll until you search it.

              I pulled 5 rolls to search and the 2 solid date rolls. If I don't find anything I'm probably just going to send them back to the bank.

                I found all my 2011 die #4 coins in rolls with several older coins mixed in with mostly 2011s.

                  In relation to that, I found all 116 of my ms 2000 Wide AM's in bank wrapped brick like this.

                  Never know what you might find! Maybe the next big variety? Maybe nothing? At least it's fun searching.
