Does this ever happen to you?

I was breaking open rolls in a dimly lit room watching a movie. Periodically taking a look into the bucket to pull any wrapper paper that made it's way into the penny bucket. Over the course of maybe $200 dollars. I happened to catch 1 belize coin, a 1913 penny, and (2) 1888 IHC's. I wasn't looking for special coins these just stuck out.

It's got to a mix between the condition of the coin and the coin type, because early wheats, IHC's, and obvious foreign coins at least for me seem to glow in the dark. I'm just happy that i caught them before they went into the machine.
